The hard case has nicks and scratches to edges and rim, including a 1/2" nick to the front and a few specks of yellow paint. Smallest example has wear to straps, but they are intact, and scratches, nicks and accretions scattered throughout. The base of one handle is lacking a piece of leather at loop. The interior fabric is musty and exhibits soiling with tears and threadbare material at corners from friction with zipper. Condition is as to be expected with age and luggage.
