Scuffs and scratches throughout. Pit marks, fisheyes and impact marks scattered around. Some crate wear to the embossing in places and the odd little flake or two as well. 2. Very Good. Stained throughout. Deep section of scuffed wear to rear lip, another to rear neck, and then some more pitted scratches in a small patch to mid lower rear. A couple more spots of pitted wear. Some scuffs and scratches. Impact nibbled fisheye to front base edge. Some other fisheyes. Some scuffs and scratches. Scrape mark down right side of trade mark. Heavy embossing otherwise with relatively minor marks. Some spots of surface rust. 3. Very Good. Stained throughout, there is a surface swirled effect to be seen in places. Some inner dirt that should clean out. A few tiny impact nicks to the base heel. Scuffs and scratches scattered around. Some fine impacts and fisheyes. Some wear to the trade mark, rest of the embossing is quite good with a small amount of wear to be found. Unusual looking lip to this one, seems a little different with the triangle base mark which I thought was a Sydney glass maker? Grade: N/A Estimate: $75 - 100
