This item comes from an original boxed set. Unfortunately, the box is made of natural material, which can't be sold anymore, so we decided to break the set and sell it in pieces. We still have the box, and if you want to buy all the pieces, we can give the box for free; ask.

It measures about 8.5cm long.

It is in excellent condition for its age.
It will need a good cleaning. 
It comes in the original conditions as found and sold as seen.
Please take a look at all the photos to see the condition.
