1. Very Good. Possible 4 x 2 mm bruise on the internal lip at one end, there seems to be a manufacturing fault here as well so difficult to judge exactly. A few light scuffs and scratches mainly to the underside where the bottle rests. Some dullness to about one third of the surface and a couple of minor scratches to the upper side. Nice and relatively unusual 1920s feeder. 2. Very Good. Around about half of the breather hole has been repaired probably with araldite or similar as it is yellowing slightly. Rest of the feeder is very nice with only light scuffs and scratches and just the hint of dullness in a couple of spots. Very strong embossing for one of these and still presents well despite the repair. Grade: N/A Estimate: $30 - 50
