Some scratches to inner barrel black baffle coating paint. Front element has some small scratches and scuffs. Some edge spidering seen on back element, doesn't look like fungus (but has similar appearance), looks like it is coating related. Likely other small optical blemishes etc. The Jas H Smith company was more of a photographic supply company but did make at least one studio camera ....continued in FULL LISTING
