Very Good. Bottle is dull all over with light scratches and scuffs throughout. A few small fisheyes can be found. Rear base has a small flake, there are also a couple of little pinprick type marks around the base. A much better than average example of this bottle that really just needs a light tumble clean to sparkle. Reasonably unusual to see such clear embossing to these, particularly on the base. Nice early Australian patent. Grade: 7.65 Estimate: $200 - 250
