What does this mean?

Thank you for submitting your item for appraisal. This appears to be a reproduction print on wove painter, showing a photo of the papyrus and the corresponding signature. The original is on exhibit in the New York Academy of Medicine. The first faksimile prints were published in 1930, judging from the lettering the print in your possession was published in the 1970s, possibly as part of an exhibition that was sent to medicine related venues. It is a decorative and informative print, but not of historic value. There is no measurement for the sentimental value you might attach to the item.
