Good

While the image itself appears to have little to no deterioration, the cardboard frame does show some bleaching at the corners. The bleaching is most likely from exposure to bright light for long periods of time. There are also several small, tan stains along the front of the frame. But the cause is unknown. The tape that is holding the image to the frame is severely deteriorated and has gone completely yellow. The adhesive is still working, however, so it can't be removed from the image yet without the possibility of damaging the drawing. It would be best to remove this frame, if possible, in the future to prevent further damage from the tape.
