The pin cushion displays general light wear and surface marks and scratches and a little tarnishing in places. There are a few minor nicks in the metal but generally the overall condition is good. The cricket bat has a stippled matt finish and two small holes to the reverse and likely to have been added at a later date. Considerable wear and deterioration to the material cushion. Maker's mark is rubbed but still legible, date mark is very distorted.
