Condition report:

The ammunition appears to be in good condition with light surface tarnishing and handling marks consistent with storage. The .45 Auto rounds show blue sealant at the primers (photo 5). The cardboard boxes show significant shelf wear, including fraying at the edges, creasing, and some tearing at the corner flaps (photo 1 and 2).
