Tin was very well kept. Although it still feels pliable, the PLASTIC LID HAS CRACKED almost in two, plus an additional crack, but is still pliable, and hangs on well. Minimal shelf wear with just a few light mars on the label, and minimal rub at the contact points. There is a long, shallow, horizontal dent along the side bottom, underneath the gold Levin Pipes decal. A couple little dings on the bottom. No oxidation, tin cracking, etc. Teeny tiny little bulges on the underside of these tins is normal, and as they came from the factory ... no idea.
Very nice and unique display piece as a whole, or ready to be cracked open and enjoyed!
