Below the photograph, centered on the mat, is a circular New York 'Giants' logo. The entire piece is encased under glass or acrylic, within a dark, possibly black or very dark blue, wooden or composite frame. The frame itself appears to be in good condition, showing no significant damage, although a white protective corner is still attached at the bottom left. The photograph seems to be in excellent condition, with no visible fading, creasing, or damage. The clarity of the autograph suggests it was signed with a quality marker and has been preserved well.
