BOTH SIGNATURE PHOTOS ARE ZOOMABLE... I BELIEVE THE IRON CROSS TO BE ORIGINAL TO THE PIECE AS THERE ARE NO SURFACE SCRATCHES TO THE RIFLE AND HAS A NICE PATINA... FOR THE ORIGINAL BRONZE SURFACE TO BE NEAR PERFECT WITH 95-100 FOR A PIECE 132 YEAS OLD. I GIVE IT A 95 OUT OF 100.
I WOULD RATE IT A 97 IN THE PREVIOUS OWNER HADN'T CLEANED ONE SIGNATURE... THE BLACK WOODEN BASE IS ORIGINAL TO THE PIRCE AND SLIGHTLY KNICKED UP. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME... AS AN AFTER THOUGHT, WHAT A PERFECT PIECE TO RECAST... TOO BAD FRANCO VIANELLO ISN'T STILL AROUND...
