Near Mint. This is one of the Dennis O'Hoy bottles that were sold recently, it has his code on the side showing that he found it in 1972. Tiny glaze nick to neck, some fine scratches to the glaze. A few dark spots to the front do come off when scraped with your nail, at least the couple I tried did. Couple of spots of sticker residue. Under left base is a thin small chip, this is almost certainly a pottery pull from making. A lovely looking bottle, great speckled glaze. There are some fine scratches. When Dennis found this it would have been 40-45 years old - when you think about that it is along the lines of collectors of today collecting bottles from the 1970s, a lot of foresight went into his collection! Grade: 9.3 Estimate: $100 - 150
