Condition report
A Christie's specialist may contact you to discuss this lot or to notify you if the condition changes prior to the sale.
The condition of lots can vary widely and the nature of the lots sold means that they are unlikely to be in a perfect condition. Lots are sold in the condition they are in at the time of sale.
We have sought to record changes in the condition of this piece acquired after its initial manufacture. One antenna is replaced, the other is a little bent. Some minor traces of oxidization. One mobile section of the proper right foreleg is a later replacement. General age-related surface wear and scratches as can be expected.
