Poor. The frame is ok. There is water damage to the photo and the surrounds. Nonetheless a great piece of Bendigo mining history with links to bottle collecting history. H. M. Leggo of course will be well known to bottle collectors and he used Hercules as his brand for numerous products, most notably pickles and sauces. The picture needs copying and/or restoring while the surrounds would likely need to be redone to produce a great item. Grade: N/A Estimate: $40 - 60
