Very Good. Dullness. Scratches. A couple of deeper ones here and there. One just below the right shoulder with a fine impact mark in the middle of it. The odd little fisheye and the like. For the bottle nerds out there I looked through our past sales list and found plenty of Vance & Ross made examples of these Abbott Codds but they all had a large A in the middle of the base. As far as I can tell this is the first one we've had with the VR Monogram and Bottle Makers across the middle of the base. Grade: 7.7 Estimate: $50 - 75
