Rating Definition:

Good with 20% original blue, traces of original case colors, and otherwise mottled brown patina, light oxidation, and minor marks. The wood is fine as refinished and repaired and has dowel type repairs on the wrist and bottom of the forearm, crisp checkering, slight chips and slivers absent at the edges of the butt, and minor marks and scratches. Mechanically excellent.
