Zounds!! Is there such a category as "better than museum quality?"
There may never again be such a pristine example of this set. I'm often the first to start replacing components to make a set work as new, but in this case I might be tempted to leave everything untouched. It can only be original once, as the saying goes.
Do you mind sharing how you found this set?
