1. Good. Most of the top and inner lip has some flaking, parts of which have been painted over although this is flaking off in most places. From the lip are some very fine hairlines - down the back over the full length of the bottle and down the front in an arc over nearly 120 mm. Bottle looks quite good on display however. (6.3). 2. Good. Impressed stamp is a bit weak as is often the case with these. The lip is worn and there is a surface 4 x 3 mm fracture on the front. A few flakes and some wear around the shoulder. Shallow 12 x 5 mm chip under the right side base, slightly smaller one under left base. A 40 mm wide section on the left side over the full height to the shoulder is crazed and slightly discoloured with some marks bordering on hairlines. Solid enough example. (6.6). Grade: N/A Estimate: $40 - 50
