Condition

Notes

These documents are in good condition. The papers have been folded into fourths, and the folds are deeply creased from having been stored folded, preventing the documents from lying flat. There are two small metal rings set into a hole in the top left corner of the documents that is starting to rust. These needs to be removed by a specialist to minimize damage to the documents. The witness testimony has been affixed to the bottom of the third sheet with an adhesive and two metal fasteners. These will eat away at the document over time and should be removed by a professional while the document is still relatively stable. The ribbons are somewhat frayed at the ends.
