CONDITION : THERE IS A FAIR AMOUNT OF WEAR TO THE SILVER ON THIS IN PARTICULAR THERE IS A HOLE IN THE CARTOUCHE AS THE BASE EDGE. IT IS FIXED WELL TO THE BACKING BUT DOES HAVE SOME AREAS IN THE APERTURE EDGE THAT STAND VERY SLIGHTLY PROUD. IT IS NOT PERFECT-IT IS NOT NEW--IT IS NEARLY 100 YEARS OLD! IT IS SHABBY BUT VERY CHIC. THE EASEL STAND IS A NEW ADDITION JUST TO ENABLE IT TO STAND UP BY ITSELF BUT NOT TO WIN ANY BEAUTY COMPETITIONS!
