Purchasing information-
The toast rack appears in a tarnished state and would benefit from a clean and polish. It displays some general wear, surface scratches and marks in keeping with the age and general use. Solder repairs are visible at some of the joins. One of the feet is a little distorted. Also a break in the join of the handle on one side. The hallmarks appear rubbed but legible. They are located on the central bar and the underside of this bar is further marked 'JR'.
