Excellent. Great looking bottle with glass full of tiny seed bubbles. Embossing is very strong with only one little nick on the outer circle near the C of CO, another smaller one from the same line near the base, and an impact mark on this same outer line right at the top. On the back shoulder are two shallow partially burst bubbles. There are some surface scratches just below the GEO. and similar scratches/scuffs on the front right shoulder. A small bubble below GEO has a tiny fracture to the surface of it. A few other light scratches and scuffs scattered around. A little bit of dirt internally. Quite a rare bottle in this blob top variety and a lovely example, with all the tiny bubbles this is a magnificent piece. Grade: 8.7 Estimate: $100 - 150
