Condition
Three are slightly bent. Oxidation and verdigris causing discoloration and variations in color. Would benefit from a clean. There are some visible horizontal lines to the ribbon backplates caused by joins of section. One is slightly different in design than the other three but well matched and does not have as much oxidation.
