'Rue des Canettes - Paris'' Time staining to the paper and evidence of where the mount has been. Small spots of foxing throughout the margins and one or two within the image. White bloom throughout the whole of the left hand side of the image, some to the centre and to the right hand side as well. Hinged from the top of the image to the backboard and tape attached to the top of the margin to attach the print to the mount- not stuck down. The second example is hinged in the same way. It has some time staining and discolouration to the paper, especially evident to the margins. The image is much cleaner than the former. There are a number of small sporadic spots of foxing throughout.
