Very Good. Original metal cap has some slight wear and staining. Ring around neck at the front has some deep wear spots, this is also on the upper shoulder down from there, in a series of short, deep scratch type marks. Some spots of light stain which may clean off. Scuffs and scratches to the body, to be expected on a large piece such as this. Label is pretty good, some minor wear and staining, there is a black mark through the shield and across through cordial. Very interesting bulk storage jar in general, from a company that had many variations of bottles including hamiltons and lamonts with the same shield design as the trade mark! Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $20 - 40
