Important Added Info: Note that this still measures 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm]. Condition: very good. There is a faint slightly diagonal line running down the still to the left of Kelly's head that was caused by the snipe that was once attached to the back. It is not very noticeable at all when the still is looked at straight on. There is a paper snipe that was once glued to the back, but it has come loose, and it will be sent together with the still to the winning bidder of this auction. Learn More about condition grades
