Condition Report
Both appear in fair overall condition, displaying general surface scratches, marks, wear and tarnishing in keeping with the age and use. Some little edge and surface nicks and heavier contact marks and scratches to some areas. Both hinges appear in working order, however on one of the cases the clasp fitting is not as tight so that a gap remains when in the closed position. The struck marks to the interior of both are clearly legible, some slight rubbing. One of the cases is also marked '900'.
