Condition:  Good.  The head is in excellent untouched condition.  The original haft has been cleaned and is in poor condition.  There are 7 original brass tacks but holes and/or evidence of 13 missing tacks.  The obverse side of the haft has a split  running from the head-end of the haft 9" into the main haft.  The reverse side of the haft is split from near the "mouthpiece" 10 inches toward the head.  Both splits are stable.
