This item is being sold strictly as a vintage collectible/display piece, not for actual modern medical use. For a piece of outdoor safety gear that is roughly 50 years old, it is in excellent vintage condition. There is minor surface dust, light scuffing, and typical age-related yellowing/spotting on the plastic case and paper packaging. One corner does have a cracked corner, see pictures. Please view all photos to assess the exact cosmetic condition.
