2.15.24-In my opinion regarding LOT: 1162- The sculpture is intact with no apparent breaks or restoration, I note only some spotting to patina, wear to finish along book cover edges, sticker residue, presumably from a tag, and what appear to be inherent imperfections, such as unevenness to patina, very minor denting, and light wear, all of which are likely inherent to the creation process, no major loss observed
