1. Very Good. Some dirty looking stain internally. A bit hazy externally. Scratches and a few scuffs to be found. Some tiny fisheyes. Some minor spots of wear to the embossing. A few tiny nicks near base edge. Nice looking bottle in this early variety. 2. Excellent. One side has some surface haze and rust down it. A few light scratches and minor marks. 3. Fair. Little dint to front lip edge looks to be a small spot of heat damage. About a 25 mm fracture below the lip from left curving down to front neck. 8 x 8 mm flake to rear base edge. A bit of dirt to be found. 4. Very Good. A bit grimy, this should clean off. 13 x 3 mm chip to heel is mostly on a pronounced seam. A few minor scratches. Beautiful Ross Brothers green colour. 5. Excellent. A little dirty inner haze looks like it will soak out. One or two tiny nicks or surface flakes. A few fine scuffs and scratches. Wonderful whittled glass. Similar shape to Kruses and other magnesia bottles, hence this is what we have suggested. 6. Fair. A bit of dullness in places. Very minor surface flaking to outer lip looks to be from making. Scuffs and scratches scattered around. Nibbled wear to the widest point on one side over a small section, however, this wear has actually formed a tiny hole that you would need a pin to get through, this is due to the very thin glass at this point. Looks really nice, although damaged, in effect it is minor. Grade: N/A Estimate: $30 - 50
