Very Good. (7.6). A couple of glaze rub spots on the rim. Repaired chip on the rim at about 3 o'clock, up to about 10 or so mm across but doesn't affect the print (even the outer ring is original). The bottom of the flange has several filled chips but the biggest looks to be about 15 x 3 mm and on the inner flange. Print is clear but light and seems to have been made this way. Base is good with some dark crazing underneath. Grading for lid only. (late Ern Taylor Collection).. Estimate: $200-300
