Condition Report
The card case appears in fairly good overall condition, displaying some general surface wear, tarnishing, surface marks and scratches commensurate with the age and use. There are some minor surface dints/bumps and slight compression to the centre. The decoration is generally still good. The hinge wobbles a little and the fixing pin does move in and out, however it still appears in good working order. It is quite a tight fit to shut and there are contact marks to the flange, but it does close properly. The hallmarks are clear and legible.
