Please review the photos and condition details closely, as this piece is being sold as-is with visible wear to the outer margins:The Printed Image: The black ink graphic block itself is in very good, strong condition with rich ink saturation and bold contrast. It shows minor waving/rumbling from previously being stored rolled, but it retains excellent visual integrity and should flatten nicely under standard archival framing pressure.The Paper Margins: The outer borders of the sheet show significant wear, wrinkling, and physical distress. Framing Recommendation: Because the margins are in poor condition, this print is best suited to be framed with a decorative mat board overlaid near the edge of the black printed image block.
Because the print has already been rolled (and has not been flattened, it will be mailed rolled in a tube.
