Near Mint. Upper lip is near perfect, just has some surface rust from the rusty cap. The thread has two shallow open bubbles. Some inner grime should wash out. A little grime to the outer surface. Labels are great, they are stained with a little wear. Right edge of main label is missing. Some other minor marks. We have not seen these labels before, a great jar which with a good and careful clean will be absolutely sparkling. Grade: 9.4 Estimate: $$100.00 - $150.00
