Lot 176

Generally in good condition consistent with age and type, with typical scattered slight pulls, small and inconspicuous old repairs within the design, and variations in colour.

Differences of colour in the plain outermost part of border (the original colour of which is blue) indicate old replacement sections on this.

The reverse, which has not been backed with a support, has various old patches to reinforce the areas of the work.
