This is a new, unopened item. It was sold in 2003. The surface of the Kitty plate is slightly discolored. Also, as shown in the last image, there is some clouding on the metal parts. Please understand this before purchasing! It has been stored in a dark place. This is a very old item and has been stored at home, so please refrain from purchasing if you are sensitive to such things. It will be wrapped in bubble wrap for shipping. Instant purchase is OK. No price reduction. No holds.
