Description

A very fine, strong and rich early impression of the second state, in which the rust stains in the upper left corner are only faintly visible. With a fine margin around the clearly visible platemark. The sheet is one of the very rare subjects with sports and leisure activities. Kolf was traditionally played on lanes and is considered a precursor to modern golf. – Two faint brown stains in the upper corners. Pencil notations on verso, otherwise in very good condition.
