Very Good (7.8). Some annealing marks from making to inner lip. Tiny nick to lower lip. A little surface rust amongst the heavy embossing. Small open bubble to the O of superior. S of waters has an inclusion with a very small star fracture from it, this is a making mark. Tiny impact to base near the point. One or two tiny impact nicks to the body. Light scuffs and scratches scattered around. Wonderful embossing is quite crude on this early example. There are some little spots of wear to it in places. A great example of this early bottle.
