Example is missing five bolts to cross bar and masonite panels, causing it to wobble when tested. Several bolts have also been updated over time. Each shelf shows four holes drilled to reverse. Assorted surface wear to laminated surfaces, with lowest showing a series of impressions along right side and an area of red paint applied to back edge center which extends up the middle bracket. Small losses to laminate along front edge of lower shelf. Overall this example would benefit from minor conservation, showing in vintage condition.
