Very Good. Bottle is in really nice, original, as found condition. Around the outside of the lip are a series of very fine impact marks and wear. There is a diagonal scratch about 21 mm long on the front neck. Body of the bottle is lightly scuffed and scratched all over. A 2 x 2 mm impact to the right of the embossing (across from the N of Bowman). Embossing is slightly weak on the lower part. A patch of water staining internally. There are some fisheyes to be found. Overall a nice example of a rare pictorial torpedo from country Victoria. Grade: 7.55 Estimate: $500 - 700
