Slipcass has scuffs - some white scuffs--, bumps, rubs on sides, top and lower edge. Open edge has wear, worn through to boards in places, but slipcase intact except for plastic removal strips - one missing, one extant but too short to help. Drawer with metal knob present, cut-out for magnifying glass. There is a Bausch & Lomb rectangular glass present, but its box is larger than the cut-out, so it may or may not be original glass.
