Condition Report
The case is in very poor condition. There are numerous general surface scratches and marks and wear commensurate with the age and use. Also some small dints and bumps, especially to one corner. The front of the case displays heavy tarnishing and would benefit from a clean and polish. The hinges are broken so that it is in two parts. Considerable wear to the material back and lining, with tears, pieces missing etc. The easel stand is also missing. Slight rubbing to maker's mark but otherwise the hallmarks are legible. The silver plated case to the pocket watch is quite badly scratched and marked, especially to the reverse and the ring handle.
