Overall in very good original condition. The table retains the original paint, which presents with craquelure throughout, and with scattered minor scuffs, surface scratches, and shallow dents, the largest located near one edge and measuring approximately ¼ x ½ inch, all consistent with age and use. There are five small dents that have been repainted. One corner of the table with a slightly larger scratch measuring approximately 4 ¼ inches long. The tabletop with some light staining and spotting, mostly concentrated to one side. The corners with some rubbing and minor losses to the paint. The metal with scattered surface scratches, shallow dents, and minor oxidation throughout, the latter concentrated to the bases of the feet. A good example of this model in original condition.
