Once that is completed it is a great item for use or display. The primitive early design is excellent for many rooms and a large variety of decor styles. It makes this an excellent staple piece for your collection, one your friends definitely won't have! A great collectors item, for use display gifting or decor. It is in unrestored completely original condition, with no major structural damage I have seen.
It has both original decals, and much original paint. It needs properly cleaned & restored in order to save the original decals. The paint is flaking in some places at the edges, but could likely be stabilized & clear coated to preserve them. Comes completely uncleaned, not even dusted, to avoid any accidental damage. Appears to crank fine and would likely grind still, but not tested with beans.
Glass is original and has no cracks. Thank you for your consideration, I appreciate your time. Comes as shown, please see photos for details and measurements.
