Good. This is basically a Hayward's Fire Grenade, but without the embossing, which is quite rare! I can't find a reference to an unembossed one. This has a 50 mm crack from the lip down past the cork to the neck. This has allowed the contents to partly leak out. IF THE WINNING BIDDER NEEDS THIS POSTED, THE CONTENTS WILL BE DRAINED PRIOR TO PACKING - IT IS ILLEGAL TO POST CHEMICALS SUCH AS THIS! Some grime and minor marks. A few fine scuffs and scratches. This is part of the James A. Lerk collection. Grade: 6 Estimate: $50 - 75
