You are buying a copy of an original pattern. As the majority of these patterns are very old, there may be signs of wear and tear such as creases, pen marks etc but all are perfectly readable. Just to state again, that you are buying a copy of a pattern not the original and not the finished item pictured.
It's not easy to find a super chunky pattern for a child and this fits the bill even though I'm not interested in the cape. But you have to adjust the sleeve pattern if you want full length sleeves.
