1. Poor. Restored through neck, the entire tan section has been painted as is an orange colour. Painted right down the left side and the right side, probably covering cracks? Painted to front base edge, probably a chip repair. Discolouration to the pottery that is not painted (not much!) Purely a shelf example. 2. Poor. Restored through the neck, this has been painted right through the neck and shoulder region. Some paintwork to left base edge, so probably a repaired chip here too. Looks like a coating has been applied over the top of the paint and across the entire bottle. Looks OK on the shelf. 3. Very Good. Some inner dirt that will wash out. Inner right lip has in impact nick which has a small bruise from it. Tiny nick to outer lip. Some scratches and little scuff marks. A few tiny impact marks and some fisheyes. Good embossing, just a few nicks and nibbles here and there. This is the version without Ltd on the badge. Grade: N/A Estimate: $20 - 30
