N/A. (N/A). 1. Excellent. Grimy, this may clean up. Some inner contents residue type stain. Upper neck label is poor. Cap is rusty and illegible. Labels are a bit "soft", discoloured and generally grimy. Some scratches and little scuff marks. Still has much of the contents inside, we can't guarantee this won't leak in the post. 2. Good. Probably better condition, but this is very heavily grimy throughout, sticky, oily, greasy, just really unpleasant to touch. The label is very poor with oily discolouration and grime throughout, some pieces missing, it is very hard to read much of it. Looks to be the original label though, showing that this bottle held capers. 3. Excellent. Sort of? Bottle is grimy with dust as well, maybe a scratch or two. Label is stained with a little hole or two and a tear or two. The cork has fallen in, this still has half its contents. Another cork is in place, but only sitting in place and so will definitely not seal. Therefore, if being posted, the contents will have to be drained. If you don;t want it drained, let us know and we will put the item aside for you to pick up. The box is poor, made out of a similar material to egg cartons. Bascially, this is falling apart. 4. Fair. Bottle has roughly a 100 mm crack to front, there is an impact bruise and star fracture as part of this at fron left shoulder. Grimy. Nibbled flake to lower body at end of deep scuffed scratch. Other scratches. Has a Cleland's Brandy label in place from Adelaide, obviously not original to this bottle as it is a 13 oz label and much later than the bottle. Also oddly has anotehr label to rear for Kola Champagne. The Cleland's label is not that flash, with wear, stains and fading.. Estimate: $30-40
