Condition Report
In fair overall condition, the flask displaying general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing commensurate with the age and use. Some small dints and bumps, mainly visible to the curved front and one corner. The bayonet lock fitting requires some attention as it is quite tight to close and does not lock properly. The maker's mark is partly worn, letter 'c' is just visible. The hallmarks also appear rubbed but are still legible.
