Unless noted above, all of my ephemera products are Original and free of rips or tears. Vintage print ads invariably have some degree of wear, especially near the binding. Also, some fading is possible, as is the smudge or run of inks during production.
As expected with vintage paper, there may be some natural darkening, and foxing may be present. Generally speaking, I will not offer for sale an item with any substantial condition issues unless it's of great quality, scarcity, or it has some other exceptional characteristic, and the issues would be described in detail.
