Seller's description

This is an original vintage print, not a reproduction or modern copy.

Condition: Very good - any markings will be clear in the listing photos.

The glazing is perspex not glass. See listing photos for details of frame options and an example of how your print would look framed.

If you do not want your print framed, select 'Matted Print Only' in the frame options drop down list.
