Good overall condition for age and fragility of these style toys. Majority of the paint is very old and exhibits wear aligned to being original (heavy crazing in the paint, thick enamel-like chipping) however it has seen some work and could have some very old and well done repaint. The area around the front stand has clear signs of overpaint Clockwork is running well and the prop spins quite fast, occasionally will loudly catch and move the cannons. Overall interesting piece and displays very well.
