The wood looks very good. The drawer slides as it should. All hardware appears original. Door does not stay locked.  The last photo shows the lower left-hand side of the front. Please note there is a piece of trim where the grain looks different. I can't imagine this is a repair as it looks flawless as to the fit. But wanted to point it out.) Please read condition description for further details. The tools are a mix of Stanley and others from the era, including a very nice Starrett divider and a 4" Sargent plane. I do not know how many of the tools were in the set originally. I did look carefully at the catalog page that is included in the auction and a some do seem at least close to what came in the set originally.
