That one is not toned to drymount from being on an acidic mat for 50 years, also not part of the numbered edition.

Can the toning be adressed or just sell as is?

Also learned that public galleries sold/rented fudge to corporate offices, and no one cares anymore

I wonder how that 290 got recorded in the leger... What's the gaap accounting for art in the 60's?
