N/A (N/A). 1. Very Good. Inner dirt should soak out. Shallow 4 x 2 mm flake to left heel. A few fine fisheyes. Some scuffs and scratches. Couple of slightly larger fisheyes near front base edge. Interesting variation by Cannington Shaw with a curved K in Kelly. 2. Good. Heavily stained. Some crazed marks below lip, little surface bruise as well. Some pitted scratches. Impact marks and fisheyes scattered around and other scratches as well. 3. Very Good. Patchy haze throughout. 4 x 3 mm spot of deep wear to front shoulder, another pitted mark below this. Tiny nick to front base edge. A few fisheyes and impact marks. Scratches and scuff marks scattered around. One or two spots of wear. The K of Kelly is very light, some of the other embossing is reasonably flat as per manufacture. Quite an odd variation with this base mark. Estimate: $50-75
