Here's the seller's reply. Sounds like he didn't know, so I did not mention it in his feedback.

Awwww  :(  Thank goodness he said how sorry he is and that you sent a polite reply. I have such a soft spot in my heart for the older generation. They had different ways, he probably didn't think he was doing any harm by packing it in insulation. So glad it turned out on a positive note.

I asked him to tell me its history and asked who tha lady was who had owned it. I got the feeling that it belonged to someone special to him since it was kept in the family a long time.
