Condition Report
Lamp is quite tarnished in places and displays general surface marks and scratches and minor nicks in the metal. There are some small surface dints, mainly visible to the faux back door. The overlapping rim around the top is bent over at two of the corners and there are some file marks visible along one edge of the base rim. Hallmarks are quite rubbed and illegible in places, especially the date letter.
