Condition Report
Condition:

The overall condition is good structurally though the fur trim along the collar is coming loose but is intact. There are some areas of discoloration most noticeable on the front right sleeve, the front opening by each inset pocket, front left hip, and the back near the shoulder blades and sleeves. The hemline is darkened from wear and there are some areas of wear on each of the hips which appears to be minor scrapes. The purple paint on the left buckle is worn on the edges and overall. The lining has several pinhead sized holes in the upper body. 

Everything is sold 'As Is’. The stated overall condition of the lot is based on the assumption that the wear is consistent with age and use. All other condition issues are stated above.
