Measures around 28 x 18" when opened out, two small areas affected on corners inside and brown toned, some foxing, mainly on the back of the document but will affect the appearance if you want to frame this one. The dark toning means a few words are very difficult to make out at two corners where folded and I feel this one is more for research than display.
