Condition

Rattle balls in legs are either missing or encrusted; longer produces rattle. Proper left front leg has been professionally repaired with break line visible; rest is professionally repaired with restoration and repainting over break lines - all done expertly and very difficult to see. Light surface wear as shown, but otherwise very nice presentation with nice pigments and great manganese deposits.
