It's in very well pres cond, w/little if any surface oxidation. It doesn't suffer from any significant creases, deep dings, dents, noticeable scuffs or unsightly scars & abrasions. The pressed carton backing board is present, intact & nearly undisturbed by creases, stains or water damage. The slight episodes of oxidation occur on the front of the tin & are largely contained to its lower, center margin. This was most likely as a result of being stored in a basement & against or in direct proximity w/a concrete floor. The oxidation isn't lifted & no visible rust is present. Only the litho'd printed image is disturbed by the oxidation. This is now a nearly 70 yr-old tin dart target & would have to be considered to still be in rather well pres cond. Quite scarce & just terrific.

    Super Target
    wall mounted dart target gameboard, manufactured by
    Superior Toys
    after WWII
    in the
    1950's.
    It's in very well preserved condition, with little if any surface oxidation
    , less some very minor oxidation limited to the center, lower margin. It doesn't suffer from any significant creases, deep dings, dents, noticeable scuffs or unsightly scars and abrasions. The pressed carton backing board is present, intact and nearly undisturbed by creases, stains or water damage. There's also a rear folding wire stand, used for tabletop placement. The dart target board can also be wall mounted. The very slight oxidation to the lower front of the tin surfaces is largely limited to its extreme lower margin. This was most likely as a result of being stored away in a basement and against or in direct proximity to a moisture laden concrete floor. The oxidation isn't lifted and no visible, unsightly rusting is present. This is now a nearly
    70 year-old
    lithographed tin enamel dart target and would have to be considered to still be in extremely well preserved overall vintage condition. Quite scarce and just terrific. Super clean. Wonderful.
    CONDITION:
    Very Good to Excellent overall vintage condition.
