Condition and Identification Note
Fair vintage condition with pronounced uneven toning from previous album storage. Lighter geometric areas on the front and reverse show where album mounts protected portions of the paper. Light surface wear, scattered spots, edge wear, and minor corner wear are present. The blank reverse has general discoloration and faint marks. The artwork, caption, printed number, gallery label, Zito signature, and studio emblem remain clear. This is a period printed card, not an original drawing or individually hand-colored artwork. Please review both photographs carefully.
Additional numbered Zito cards are available separately. Combined shipping is available when multiple cards are purchased in the same transaction.
