They are both free of rips/tears. There is old mounting residue on the backsides of both on the top and bottom. There is some foxing and discoloration due to age. The deer engraving has slight crinkling of the paper on the left (see photo of close up). Colors are soft and muted on a tea tinted ground (from aging paper). These are very old but still display beautifully. less
