CONDITION – PLEASE READ
Pre-owned vintage condition with visible age-related wear.
There is some moisture-related damage and discoloration visible on the label, along with areas of staining, spotting, and minor imperfections.
The moisture damage does not take away from the overall vintage appearance and, in our opinion, adds to the aged character of this historic advertising piece.
The blue frame also shows scratches, scuffs, small chips, and finish wear from previous handling and display.
