Some staining across the top of the image and in the margin, a scratch near the letter "B", otherwise an attractive example . Caron's poster depicting Josephine Baker dancing in a grass skirt (in actuality a banana skirt) with her partner Joe Alex at the Bal Negré in Paris is one of the most iconic images of the period.
