Condition Report
The item displays general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Heavier patches and spots of tarnishing to some areas and it would benefit from a clean and polish. Several deeper scratches and nicks in the metal are visible and there are also some dints and bumps. The three sliders appear in working order but they are all quite stiff to move. The black and blue leads are still clearly visible. Impressed maker's mark is clear and legible.
