Very Good (7.3). A bit hazy throughout. Dullest at the top. Little fisheyes and impact marks scattered around. Short pitted scratch above one of the rear dimples. Tiny surface bruise to rear heel. A few little pitted marks to mid rear. Some scratches and little scuff marks. L of Boulder has a nibbled flake to the lower bar. Some nicks and spots of wear to the other embossing. Solid example of this extremely rare bottle. Apparently the business was destroyed by fire on the opening day! There are only a few examples known in each size, I don't recall ever seeing one sold!
