1. Very Good. Some inner dirt should clean out. There is a bit of light haze as well. Some fine scuffs and scratches. A few tiny nicks. Interesting rolled lip has allowed some dirt to enter giving the lower lip a discoloured look. Cheekily, Dyason's registered this Bosisto's eucalyptus in competition with the successful J. Bosisto company, they were not at all related! 2. Very Good. 8 x 4 mm bruise to front near base edge from an inclusion. Thin chip to rear base edge. Surface bubble or two. Inner dirt should wash out. Scuffs and scratches to be found. 3. Very Good. Oiled internally. Fine short shallow fracture to rear base heel. Some scratches and scuff marks. A bit of grime. 4. Very Good. Label is correct, but I am thinking not original as the bottle is stained underneath. 5. Very Good. A bit hazy. Some fine scratches and minor marks. This is quite hard to get. 6. Excellent. Some grime. Scratches. Large portions of label are missing. There's enough to see War Pack at top of label, which helps to date this to the Second World War. Grade: N/A Estimate: $30 - 50
