1. Fair. Small fine inner lip bruise. Deep scratch to front left lip which is a little nibbled. Little impact flake to rear lip. Heavily scuffed and scratched around neck and shoulder. 32 mm angled crack to right lower body. 10 x 7 mm bruise to rear near base. Just below left rear lip a mark forms which curves down the front left body to the U of Melbourne. This looks like a crack in places, but is a long impurity in the glass like a very large airbubble which is made up of a myriad of tiny airbubbles. Scuffs and scratches throughout with some fisheyes. Crate wear to the embossing. Milky bubble to front. 2. Good. Split to upper lip, may be from making, but not sure. Nibbles and pinpricks to upper lip amongst some rust. Lower lip has some nibbled flakes. Impact flake to shoulder which is quite nibbled. Open bubble to upper body. Little body chips to lower body. Stained heavily throughout, this has scuffs, scratches, impacts and fisheyes all over. Harder to get in this early all way pour, this does need a bit of work. Grade: N/A Estimate: $30 - 50
