Please see my short youtube condition video in the description box below for best views. This stein is not perfect but nonetheless, amazing, surviving condition! Die hard collector notes: Tight line on inlay lid as photographed and in video. 2 equally tight lines on base. Color loss on base brown color from expected use and storage. Ever so slight strap support wiggle. Hinge operates as intended and lid closes on rim as intended. No rim damage and interior is great! No damage to handle Impressive size, shape, themes, and colorations.
