Default from the listing

I guess that answers my question from the previous restoration... unrestoring a restored card doesn't negate the alteration...
"Our consignor purchased this card in a restored state, with coloring to minimize the appearance of creases and paper added to enhance the corners. Preferring an unaltered representation, the new owner took immediate steps to return the card to its original condition, commissioning an expert to undo these modern contrivances. Admittedly small portions of the added color in the orange background remain, but the return to original state is as complete as possible. And when considering the magnificent visual appeal that existed before restoration was first undertaken, one wonders why anybody would have proceeded. This is unquestionably one of the prettiest Wagners that exists."
