Notes on this view:

This direct positive (reversal) silver gelatin print originated from a photo booth machine in the mid-20th century. Notice the black borders of the print. This often, though not always, indicates it is a direct positive (reversal) print meaning there was no negative. The paper itself was exposed in the camera and reversal processed making a positive image on paper.

Aside from the scale and four image print format, the crop of the portrait and frontal lighting are also typical of photo booth photography.

The print exhibits no significant image based deterioration, though has several areas of physical damage.
