Excellent. Likely mounted in a window frame at the front of the pharmacy, there is grime around the edge where it has been mounted in something. Some other surface dust will clean off the front. Couple of minor scratches. There are some flakes around the edges. The paintwork is great, some reasonably small missing patches to the right side where there is a flake or a scratch through the paint. Quite a superb piece of history. The glass is thick - 8 mm.
