Condition report:
The cardboard box displays moderate shelf wear, including softened corners and some surface scuffing consistent with age. The printed graphics remain legible, though there is light fading to the red pigment. Handwritten ink markings are clear on the front and reverse. The clear plastic wrap is intact but shows some handling wear and surface dust. The brass cases remain inside the box and have not been individually inspected for tarnish or structural integrity.
