General Condition


  • New (N)
    Just like it sounds. A brand-new, unused, unhung and unhandled copy in original condition.

  • Very Good (VG)

    A copy that has been used, but remains in clean condition. The paper is clean overall. Paper may contain some imperfections outside the image area. Image area may contain some minor imperfections.


  • Fair (F)
    A usable copy. Paper is intact. Paper maybe in rather poor condition but it is acceptable for display in a frame.

outside the image area and can be framed out.
