Near Mint. There is some very light spots of wear to the shoulder, with two small and shallow flakes to the right side which are only a couple of mm and a fraction of a mm deep. There are some manufacturing marks such as small blow outs and some lumps and bumps here and there. There is a dark line running around the jar between the lip and the shoulder in some spots, this appears to be where a manufacturing fold was in the pottery which now has thicker glaze than the rest of the shoulder making it of darker appearance. This is a superb example of a rare variety of this larger size jar with the three lines of writing. Grade: 9.4 Estimate: $250 - 300
