Rating Definition:

Good, retaining strong traces of original blue finish and faint patterns of case colors visible in the protected areas with a mostly smooth gray and brown patina on the balance, scattered dings and scratches, and cylinder drag line. Grips are also good with a chip at the toe on the left, dings and scratches, and about half the varnish remaining. Mechanically fair.
