Condition report

We have been advised by the vendor that they acquired the backdrops direct from Glyndebourne at the end of a season clearout. The backdrops have no labels or signatures to the reverse and they are not mounted on anything. They have some minor mud stains to the reverse but are otherwise generally in good condition. They make up approx 2/3 of a larger version of the "Opera Season" pictures, scarves and handkerchiefs by Grayson Perry that were sold through the Glyndebourne shop - we believe that we are missing the right hand side panel.
