CONDITION= Greatvintage condition - The exterior is perfect to near perfect condition. There is just one small area on the back side, lower right corner, with two small thread pulls. You very well may be able to weave or hook under to hide them if you felt the need. I haven\'t tried as they are most unnoticeable. The inside lining shows what Iwould estimate is a normalamount of minor discoloration or marks from use and age. Mostlikely makeup, small ink mark and similar. No holes, frays, offensive smells. Really in an excellent state ofpreservation \"A picture is worth a thousand words\"

Please view & enlarge photographs to closely inspect fine details and to determine the amount of patina and/or wear. Most older pieces by nature normally have some degree of both and, unless severe, aren\'t considered damaged and not mentioned. Especially if obvious and/or prominent in the photos. Individuals do have varying levels of desire and tolerance for \"vintage charm\" so doutilize the scroll arrows beside the photos to allow yourself the opportunity to view them all, as they are an integral part and extension of thedescription.
