Condition Report
Both boxes display some general wear, surface scratches, marks and tarnishing in keeping with their age and use. Would benefit from a clean and polish, especially the oblong box. Some surface dints and bumps to both. Hinged lid of oblong box appears in working order, however it does not close completely as there is a gap remaining. Some rubbing to hallmarks and maker's marks, especially on the pill box. Mostly legible.
