Summary GOOD

Assessor HR

Notes Letter is in good condition but with creasing from being folded. The accompanying envelope has more discolouration and a tear to the flap. There are signs that it has been glued closed at some time. There is some spotting on the front and rear of the envelope as well as some black speckles (presumably ink).
