Here are the definitions that Kerwick Appraisals use to define the
condition:

Good Typical for its type and age with normal wear
and tear.
Poor Restoration is needed and would greatly
enhance its present value unless the cost would exceed the value of the item. EX: POOR with numerous urine stains and
border missing
