- Reason
- The only (more-or-less) black and white illustration of a major character's costume, I thought it best to separate this from the rest of the set, as it's qualitatively different, and might call for separate evaluation therefore. I think the yellowing near the centre is intentional, but I could be wrong, the paper is very, very yellowed compared to the others, and I'm not fully sure why.

- Comment Looks cut-off. — Chris Woodrich (talk) 00:11, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
- @Crisco 1492: Check the original. Might have lost a pixel or two at most on the already-cut-off text on the left, but other than that, it's as much as we have. I think these were done on larger pieces of paper, then cut up to be handed around, maybe, as there's a lot of cut-off text in costume designs. Adam Cuerden (talk) 02:22, 16 August 2015 (UTC)
- Maybe a crop would help? Kaldari (talk) 01:19, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
- @Kaldari: Don't see how. One can use {{CSS image crop}} to get any other crop you want. Adam Cuerden (talk) 18:46, 20 August 2015 (UTC)

- Oppose I don't think it is cut off; the French reads fine even if it does get close to the left-hand edge. I don't find much EV in it though; the costume and notes strike me as quite uninspired and we have no way of knowing if this is an accurate depiction of Prévost; the designer isn't going to be chiefly concerned with capturing an accurate likeness. I might support it as a set with the others, but on its own, no. Belle (talk) 12:38, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
