1. Very Good. Bottle itself is heavily stained and dirty internally. Some outer stain as well. Label has been applied in recent times, but is an original label, which is interesting, so this one is more about the label than the bottle. Obviously it was applied to an incorrect bottle. A couple of tears to the bottom of the label. Some minor discolouration. A later label than the bottle, not sure what age but would be maybe 1940s? It is not one that I recall seeing though, hence it remains interesting. 2. Very Good. Tiny nick to inner lip edge. Some light dullness internally, some of this is dirt which will clean, but may still be a tad hazy afterwards. Little flake near rear base edge. Small bruise of about 5 x 3 mm to lower rear body. Crude swirls in the glass from making. A few minor scratches and marks. A scarce one! Grade: N/A Estimate: $30 - 50
