The grips are also excellent with the left panel showing a mellow, aged chocolate brown tone, a few scattered light handling marks on both,
and crisp checkering. Mechanically excellent. The box is fine with the label on the lid showing extensive fading but visible imagery, some scattered minor staining, and some mild wear.
