Apparent repairs to the back are noted as follows: one to the crest, three to the left side stile, two at the center splat, and one to the right stile below the ear. Some mild scuffs and paint scuffs are observed mostly at the back and behind the arms. The back right knee has an apparent repair, the right foot at front, and both back feet with repairs.
