Vintage & retro audio equipment is getting more and more collectible.
These particular speakers are in good working order when it comes to sound output. However, They are let down by the physical condition that they are in.
Obviously with any older Hi-Fi equipment, They need servicing to keep working as they were intended.
Restoring these speakers back to how they should be, Keeps them alive for people to appreciate this era of audio equipment.
