Description

The image shows moderate mat abrasions and some patina from age. I don’t see any abuse to the emulsion, however there is a chip (about 1/2″) to the glass plate on the bottom (covered by mat). The lacquer on the back is heavily crazed. The brass mat and preserver show moderate patina and wear, but display well. The cover glass appears replaced. The case looks to have had some restoration done, but displays well.
