Excellent. Bottle itself is superb with just a few fine scratches and marks. Label has a bit of damage around the edge and to the BL of Blake. Generally nice for such and early one though, has had a fine coat of something put on it to protect it. A really nice early piece. Grade: 8.5 Estimate: $40 - 60
