Very Good. General light dullness and wear to the glaze throughout. The upper lip has half a dozen or so glaze flakes, pretty much just spots of wear just through the glaze. There are some lumps to the body from the manufacturing process, a few of these have formed blow outs, there are two to the left of the badge and a couple to be found elsewhere as well. There are a couple of glaze flakes to the letf side of the body as well. There is one small flake or minor blowout to the N of ginger. Some metallic looking scratches in spots on the left side, there are a couple near the base and one near the upper part of the badge. These are surface marks which may come off. Minor wear around the sharp shoulder edge in places. This is a great example with no damage apart from some dullness! Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $2000 - 2500
