In excellent condition considering age and history. Zoom in on photos to see any imperfections including two small hairline cracks at the top where the holes for hanging are. They do not appear to go all the way through but consult a professional when hanging to be safe. There are also white spots in the blue background and a few tiny dark specks on her face- all appear to be inherent in the manufacturing process and not aftermarket defects. less
