Very Good. Thin open bubble to upper lip, tiny nick next to this. Spot of wear to outer lip. Some fine inner dirt that looks like it should soak out. Some fine wear to base point. Scuffs and scratches, mostly down the Geelong side. The L is flaked. Long neck bubble has a small open portion. Couple of impact marks to the body with small surface flakes associated. A few fisheyes. Great embossing, flake or two and minor marks but generally very nice. Nice example in original condition. Grade: 7.6 Estimate: $200 - 250
