The print quality appears good, with solid color rendering and a balanced contrast that enhances the visual presence of the subject. Details: – Dimensions: 40 × 28 cm – Paper: heavy stock, estimated around 250 g/m² – Unframed – Shipped rolled in a rigid protective tube A decorative and collectible piece for enthusiasts of industrial design, pop culture, and iconic objects that shaped visual history.
