In vintage/antique condition with signs of wear and age throughout. The pull is frayed and the tape sticks out on one side as pictured. Meant for surveying, not measured in inches. Don't purchase it if you're looking to actually use it because of the measurements and the fact that there's no recoil, it's all manual, unsure if that's by design or it's missing a piece.
