Very Good. Later plastic top from Cohn Bendigo comes off to reveal a nice lip. Very hazy and stained throughout. Scratches and scuffs scattered around. Less fisheyes than usual for a syphon, and generally smaller too. Tiny nick under base. The makers mark under the base has red paint over it making it illegible. Brilliant design on the badge, this is a rare bottle! Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $100 - 150
