these unique, one of a kind garments.

visible flaws.
Excellent - Evidence of gentle wear and/or minor visible flaws.
Very Good - Evidence of wear and/or some significant
visible flaws;
integrity of the piece not
compromised.
Fair - Signifigant evidence of wear and/or major flaws; piece good for
study purposes.

means item has been previously reserved/sold). Once notified that
an item is reserved for you, payment must be received within 5 business
