Good/VG- antique condition with moderate -to- to severe cosmetic blemishes throughout but NO structural cracks, splits, breaks or repairs. Original leather strap handle is broken and missing (see pics). Hardwood & iron construction remains structurally rigid & strong. Looks to be complete and functional but has NOT been tested. May or may not work. Shaft fully extends and engages the gears/moving parts inside. When found, it was missing (1) of the (4) tiny screws holding the nameplate on. We have replaced it with a similar but not perfectly matched screw (see 2nd pic...it's pretty darn close). Being offered as a collectible/display piece only. Outstanding, rich patina throughout! Very rare matching advertising pieces!! See pics.
