Please See Pictures For The Best Description Of Condition. We provide description of items based on the observation, research or provided information and try to answer all questions to the best of our ability. We at YSI try to be fair and conscientious with our descriptions and condition reports, however potential buyers should note that antique & vintage items often show normal signs of use and wear, not always specified in a condition report. Additionally, lack of a condition report does not imply that the lot is in perfect condition or completely free from wear and tear, imperfections, or the effects of aging. All of my items are packed extremely well.
