Condition:
It is in fair vintage condition. The exterior shows a lot of travel wear with scuffs and scratches. The leather would benefit from a conditioning. The leather finish on the edges is worn through in spots. The zippers are a bit stiff but they are functional and in good shape with no tears in the canvas attachment strips. The interior shows wear and tear and has a slight musty vintage luggage smell. The handles are solid and secure with no splits. The pictures are the best indicator as to condition, please use the zoom feature and check them out.
