Good overall condition. Overall, there are small brown spots in the white areas and brownish discoloration or grease stains along the color lines, likely due to aging or the material itself. In the yellow field at the bottom right, there are several larger brown spots or areas of discoloration. Retouching in the white margins, somewhat more pronounced in the lower right corner.
