Excellent. (8.4). Tiny surface fisheye to upper lip and the finest of thin bands of surface wear to upper lip, most wouldn't even mention this! A few tiny surface fisheyes around the chamber with some very minor surface scratches. A bit of fine surface wear around the upper body in a thin band around the bottom of the neck groove and a few more fisheyes. 3 x 2 mm surface impact mark above the second C of Volcanic. Similar mark to the N of Volcanic. A few little impact nicks and tiny flakes to the very strong embossing. Some fine scratches and surface scuffs around the base edge with some more very fine fisheyes. A superb example, would be called mint by many! Extremely rare bottle, this is the first we have ever seen for sale. Honan's owned the hotel in Birchip at the turn of the century. Estimate: $2000-3000
