Good/VG vintage condition with moderate overall wear but remains structurally rigid & strong. One area of top rim is bent (see pics, especially pics 9 &10) and an area of smaller dents at bottom rim (see last pic). Otherwise, NO major breaks or repairs. Both sides are barrel are marked and both are partial. Enough is visible to make out what it says but definitely hard to read at first. Superb, insanely rich patina throughout, including some incredibly artful, old green pain stains. See pics.
