Excellent, retaining 98% plus original deep blue finish with a few limited minor handling marks, some dried grease, and crisp roll-marks. The grips are exceptionally fine with a few limited minor handling marks in the well-defined checkering with attractive aged oil finish. Mechanically excellent. The box is fine with some edge fraying and a clear end label. Overall a highly attractive example of a pre-World War II Colt First Series Woodsman Target pistol with its original box!
