Condition Report:
Please review all photos carefully as they serve as the primary description of the item's condition.
• This piece shows genuine, age-appropriate wear from decades of storage.
• There is expected flaking, light scuffing, and superficial paper loss typical for fragile 80+ year-old cardboard containers.
• Important Note on Tape: There is old cellophane tape present around the top perimeter of the canister (visible in close-up photos). It has been left exactly as found to protect the integrity of the original paperboard and prevent any surface tearing.
• The canister displays beautifully with strong, legible typography and rich color graphics on the main body.
Item is sold as-is. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or if you require additional photos prior to purchase.
