Condition:
The print and frame are in acceptable pre-owned condition, the mat is heavily toned and should be replaced, the print was not inspected out of the frame, it might be slightly bleached, the print is somewhat wavy, the inside of the glass is very dirty and it would greatly benefit the pieces if the frame could be opened up and the inside of the glass can be cleaned, we can mail the print much cheaper if you decide to take it without the frame
