Overall very good condition consistent with age. Some vertical hairlines to both the head and foot boards, typically associated with wood shrinkage over time and common for wood pieces of this age. A few hairlines have been sensitively stabilized by a professional and the finish has likely been refreshed at some point in the piece's history.
