Ball, 1970." 3. VG. Little dint to outer rim near top is glaze over from making. However, there is some wear through the glaze around the rim in this region as well. Some other glaze wear around rim.

Repaired chip to left outer flange, doesn't look to have encroached on the face at all. Paint has yellowed here a bit.
