One broken/missing tooth (see green arrow in 11th pic). It doesn\'t seem to affect the tool at all. Otherwise, Very Good antique condition with outstanding patina throughout. Fully functional tool with a nice crisp ratcheting sound. Originally came with (2) removable socketsin a wooden box, none of which is included. Tool only. Maker\'s mark is a bit faded but still completely visible(see 3rd pic). All in all, a fantastic example of a very hard to find old wrench!!See pics.
