1. Very Good. Nice clean example that is just a bit scuffed and scratched mainly around the shoulder and base. Also little surface impact marks scattered about. Super strong main embossing that is in excellent shape with only minor wear and a couple of flakes. Nice internal thread that is quite hard to get, especially with the extra line of writing down the front. (7.8) 2. Very Good. Nice enough bottle, would probably grade better but as is typical of these the trade mark embossing is a bit weak. There is a very faint and difficult to see impact type bruise to the inner front lip that is about 5 x 3 mm. Some scratches and small impact marks to the back base area. Front shows some scuffs and scratches, main area is the front shoulder and near the trade mark where there is also a little rust spot. Some scuffs, scratches and minor fisheyes to the left rear as well. Top is unusually spun on so that the seam line actually continues on a large curve over the blob to right near the top. Nice solid example of this bottle. (7.6). Grade: N/A Estimate: $30 - 50
