Very Good (7.2). Polished. Quite a bit of surface pitting remains. Lots of tiny bubbles as well. Inside the back chamber it looks like a shallow burst bubble. Quite strong embossing for one of these. A couple of fleabites on the lip. Better than average example of this rare and desirable bottle. (Same bottle that appeared in Auction 37, Lot 79). EST: $700 - 1000
