Very Good. (7.1). Upper right rear lip has a tiny impact with an associated horseshoe type hairline along upper lip. There is a little thin inner lip flake associated with this. Fine 50 mm hairline curves along the left lower lip and upper shoulder to the front shoulder. Little impact flake to right heel, there is a curved hairline from this over about 40 mm and another horseshoe hairline as well. Discoloured line of stain down front left. Some glaze wear and scratches in places. This has the typical cataloguing sticker and texta mark indicating that this was once part of the Dennis O'Hoy collection, and that he sourced this way back on 14th December, 1972! Nearly 50 years ago, back then, this bottle would have only been 50 years old, which is no different to us collectors collecting 1970s bottles now!. Estimate: $75-100
