Fair. Polished. Cloudy and hazy inside. Has been very pitted and stained and the remains are still evident. Embossing is decent, just a bit rounded in places. The top has had two shallow slice like chips down the front that have been worked on and smoothed over and now appear as two slightly wavy dips down the length of the applied top. The base edge has a couple of small smoothed over chips as well. Basically a solid bottle that needs a better clean up. Highly desirable pictorial Lamont. Grade: 5.9 Estimate: $150 - 200
