Some brass missing on the games box, hinges sit slightly loose, minor loss to the shaped top in the left hand corner, some oxidization to the brass gaming counters, the bezique set clasp slightly stiff but generally good, minor tearing and abrasion to the corners of the leather box with a tear just to the right of the clasp, the scoring boards and the cards all seem to be in good used order
