Beyond a Cincinnati Legacy: The Collection of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Fleischmann III, Part I

In overall fine and fairly stable condition, with a very slight wobble, but seemingly structurally sound.  Retains a fairly even patina, though likely faded throughout. Scuffs, marks and scratches consistent with age and use. Age cracks visible in areas. Traces of old worm. An old 3” x 14” patch to the center of the top. Old patches to the molded edge of the top.  Minor losses to carved edges. The top is somewhat warped.  It is possible that the legs and top are associated to one another, the presence of other supports to the underside of the top and the manner in which they are cut, would suggest that there may have been another structure to support the top.

The physical condition of lots in our auctions can vary due to age, normal wear and tear, previous damage, and restoration/repair. All lots are sold "AS IS," in the condition they are in at the time of the auction, and we and the seller make no representation or warranty and assume no liability of any kind as to a lot's condition. Any reference to condition in a catalogue description or a condition report shall not amount to a full accounting of condition. Condition reports prepared by Freeman's staff are provided as a convenience and may be requested from the Department prior to bidding.

The absence of a posted condition report on the Freeman's website or in our catalogues should not be interpreted as commentary on an item's condition. Prospective buyers are responsible for inspecting a lot or sending their agent or conservator to inspect the lot on their behalf, and for ensuring that they have requested, received and understood any condition report provided by Freeman's.
