Excellent. A couple of light spots of rust to the top. Tiny scuff mark to rear between dimples. Light scratch type scuff mark down the rear. Couple of surface scratches at the base heel. Lettering looks superb, there is a chip from the N of New, a flake chip to the left of the monogram, and a chip to the top of the R of North. The other lettering is all great with only the odd light mark. There are a couple of inclusions in the glass from manufacture, there are no fractures at all associated with these. A few other light scuffs and scratches, and very few fisheyes which are hard to detect. Great example of an exceptionally rare Melbourne marble bottle, don't miss this opportunity. Grade: 8.35 Estimate: $750 - 1000
