Please look at all photos carefully, you can verify glass color, and also note a few issues with the frame.
There is one corner that has lost an edge, but it was long ago and so patina still matches. It does not affect usage or stability of the piece.
A screw eye has been attached to one side, for hanging in a darkroom, a very common practice back in the old days.
There is no brand visible, and I don't know exactly how old, but this came with an old 8x10 Century Universal camera I got about 25 years ago. It's been stored well, and unused for probably 40 years or more.
Condition is Used, Item is sold as-is, so please look at all photos and ask if you have any questions or need more details.
I will ship with USPS Parcel Select Ground, usually within 1 day of payment. Thanks for your interest, hope you can put this piece back to work!
