Good. Flaked to upper lip, a nibbled type flake. 8 mm fracture down from this on right lip. Open bubble next to front right dimple. Stained throughout. Spot or two of rust. Scuffs and scratches scattered around along with some impact marks and fisheyes. Appears to be made by the same glassworks as the other small Dixon Niagara patent in this auction. This is very different in style to that one, but is equally rare. We cannot recall seeing any small size early Niagara patents from this company, now we have two different ones in the one auction.
