They are not new and may have antique marks, tiny missing pieces slight misalignment or shrinkage imperfections, and will have shown signs of fatigue. Its all normal for the age of any historic box. We try to restore to a good order but can not list every single mark. If you are unsure in any way before purchase please contact us for more information. we are only to pleased to offer help.
