  • Condition: As a group overall they are in good shape.They have age tanning of course, folds, some scattered spots of foxing. There may be a slit along a fold or a hole at a fold point scattered in the group. The wear and tear you would expect 120 year old paper to have. NOTE--THESE WERE STORED FOR MANY YEARS IN THE HOME OF A SMOKER. I'VE TRIED TO AIR THEM OUT, BUT THEY DO STILL HAVE A LINGERING SMELL OF TOBACCO. IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE TO THIS, YOU MIGHT WANT TO PASS ON THIS LOT. Check out the photos and scans carefully, they tell the story.
