Frames are in varied condition, however all display general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use.  Heavier tarnishing to some areas.  Deeper scratches and nicks are visible to some areas, and also some small surface dints.  Some loss of detail to decoration.  Numerous holes in the embossed silver border of the 1901 frame and it is coming away from the frame.  There is considerable damage to the easel backs on both Edwardian frames.  The modern frame is in need of a polish and it is also lifting slightly in places, especially at the corners.  The hallmarks are mainly clear and legible.
