Some light surface scratches all over, as to be expected. Front top rail a little out of shape. There are interior guides to the rear of the front, suggesting there was once a glass or perspex cover to the front window, which is now lacking. Both packs appear complete, though most of the cards are scuffed and showing signs of wear.
