Condition
The colours in the printed catalogue illustration are fairly accurate. The edges and corners present traces of wear. Scratches and scuffs are visible along the lower edge under close inspection. There is a 1cm2 loss of paint in the lower left corner and a small dent in the lower left corner. As is visible in the catalogue illustration, the upper left corner presents a scratch.
