Notes (this edition) These notes were written by the original owner/seller/auctioner of the item and may be inaccurate.: | Measures 7 by 15 inches.There is a sort of black sparkly paint on the back top edge and a little on the side edges on the back. I don't know what it is, doesn't show through and to me doesn't detract from this lovely image. A bit of rippling to the top middle of the paper
