[QUOTE="Cereus17, post: 9700027, member: 84316"]The left hinge IS in fact bent. (Hadn't noticed that until I photographed it today.) That probably did happen when the big scratch was made by the other hinge. Maybe somebody (very clumsily) pried the box open at some time. The marks on the other hinge are just scratches - not maker's marks. In the third photo you can see the impression left by the missing mirror.
