The camera case shows some delamination to the metal cladding around one of the bottom spindle external caps, please see the last photo. The delaminated sections on both sides can be gently pressed down with a coin and the camera closes well but this issue should be addressed by a professional repair shop to insure no light leaks out if this camera is to be used for anything other than display or prop. The camera folding mechanism works smoothly and the shutter works well without the film but we are selling this camera untested as we are unable to properly evaluate all the functions of the camera and lens. The clasp on the leather case works well, the leather on the Diamond branded case and strap looks great cosmetically but it is definitely on the dry side. Photos tell an accurate story of condition. less
