Default I should have mentioned it

That is the first Horner I have seen that is not an albumem photo glued to a mount (at least that is how it appears).

I should have mentioned there is in fact a Christies sticker on the back of the photo. As for it not being on a mount, I concur, I don't remember seeing others not on a mount. That, in itself, was not an alarm to me though. I didn't think that was a big deal. So a return will be done unless someone wants it for what I paid for it, which was about $195 (I think)....See how I snuck in a BST on the forum? (bad me.....)

Thanks again for all of the help and responses.....
