Brilliant external finish remaining. A couple of dings on the edge of the frame, but no cracks or other damage. The full length reel foot is unaltered. The ivory handle spins freely. Nice tight reel mechanically. I've included photos of each side of each pillar. Slight line grooves (or wear really) exist on one pillar. Don't miss out on adding this one to your collection!
