One or two very fine hairline cracks at the joins of the handle with the tail and spout, from the time of firing.

Minor surface dirt with one or two spots of adhesive residue in places. The underside with some adhesive residue and resultant staining and the remnants of adhesive labels. Subject to the foregoing, it is our opinion that the work appears to be in generally good condition.
