This is in as found condition. There are various cosmetic damages as seen in photographs. When playing it I can't get the right side to come up to allow it to be played more easily, and to allow more time between needing to "inflate" it, except for when pushing down firmly on the left side. Even then it doesn't come up like I suspect it should, though this could be user error since this isn't my area of expertise. This may be something that someone versed in these instruments is capable of repairing but that person is not me.
There are 24 white keys and 17 black keys.
All notes play.
