Comment:
Print was removed from its frame and the frame (with a sticker from "Saake Framing, Berkeley") and its acidic cardboard backing was discarded. The print is glued all along its top edge to the back of an acidic mat. Archival cotton-rag mat board was placed under the print for support and neutral glassine interleaving was added between the mat and the print. J. Williams 5/8/2014
