Some scuffs and scratches. There is a really fine star fracture at the front base edge covering about 7 x 5 mm. 3. Good. Fracture in the lip on the pictorial side looks to come from a fold in the glass, it runs 7 mm over the top of the lip and then in a couple of jagged lines for around another 12 or so mm across the upper mid top. At the end of this cross line is another very fine 10 mm fracture running straight down but only in the outer lip. Otherwise a bit of dullness. Some scratches. Inclusion near the first P in the name with a surface 7 x 3 mm butterfly bruise. Super embossing. 4. Fair. Would be a beauty and has the best embossing I've seen on one of these.

Partially burst bubble on the head of the Lion has some dirt in it. Stain inside the lower part of the bottle. Some scratches and scuffs. Another small burst bubble lower down on the writing side. .
