Condition Report
Overall fine stable condition. Approximately 36 light sockets each one has not been tested but for the majority in fine working condition.  Wood and acrylic pieces detach for transport. Wood pieces to base are slightly looser and tape has been added to create a secure fit. Acrylic pieces have scattered air bubbles inherent in the manufacturing process. Aluminum exterior is fairly clean with light scuffs and scratches to feet from normal age related wear. 1 spot of light discoloration to aluminum pillar. Interior of columns has heavier wear from dust, oxidation, residue but not visible outwardly. Please see additional images for full extent of condition.
