Condition Report
The woodcut is trimmed to the edges and so has no margins.  I have not examined it out of the frame and it would appear attached to the back board in some way.  It does not lie flat so it may have been framed sensitively with tape just to hold the corners. No holes or tears to the paper.  Some very small spots of discolouration within the paper in places.

Bidding indicates acceptance of the condition of the lot.  All lots are sold subject to general wear and tear commensurate with age and handling over time and only obvious faults will be mentioned after a visual inspection. If you have particular specialist questions on any lot, please state these before bidding since we cannot and will not provide a forensic examination of any lot but only a general condition report as a guide only. All condition reports given by Halls Holdings Ltd's representatives or agents are statements of opinion and not fact. If you require any further information about any lots in this auction or about bidding please do not hesitate to contact us again.
