Scratches all over. Bit dirty and grime too. 3. VG. Would be better but has a solid scuff mark down the mid upper front. A couple of smaller marks next to this. Otherwise just a bit of grime and light haze. Nicely embossed. Good looking bottle. Earlier base mark on this one. 4. & 5. Grigsby is broken at the bottom of the neck. Bit of chipping continues on to the left shoulder. Pretty neat, should be repairable. Scuffy and a fair bit of pitting around. The Graham is the scarcer "fat" variety. It is the original top glued back together at the cross pinch. A piece of glass missing at the back right part of the join. The lip has an impact and fracture over the back. Scuffy and scratched. 6. Repaired. Has a major repair down the back. Chip to the pouring lip also has been filled. Bit of stain. Fortunately the front displays very well. Nice little piece from Queenscliff. 7. Some small tears to the label. Bit discoloured. Worn and some marks. Dust and grime. Lid is in good working order. Interesting later piece. 8. Metal part and plastic are a bit loose but there is a screw there to tighten that join up. Metal is tarnished. Light marks. Unusual piece! (late Ern Taylor Collection). Estimate: $100-150
