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.
In good overall condition.
The replaced leather in generally good condition with minimal aging, marking or wear from use.
As stated in the cataloguing text, possibly re-mounted.
Traces of apparently inactive, historic woodworm. Cleaned and repolished at some time. Slight shrinkage and cracking throughout, as to be expected. The top with well repaired lateral splits, these have been repaired to the underside with the insertion of flush butterfly fillets. These splits are not readily visibble externally and predate the present leather.

Illegible inscription to the underside 'a...c...'.
Evidence of apparently inactive, historic woodworm.
