John Vesey

Overall in very good original condition. The original leather with light wear, craquelure and creases, consistent with age and natural wear occurring in this material over time and gentle use. The overall form with traces of dust to the stitching and recessed areas of the design. There are three scuffs to the leather at the proper right upper corner. The aluminum feet with light abrasions, nicks and surface scratches consistent with age. The leather has been well cared for and the large form presents very well overall.
