A small dark spot near the C of Francis and another above are discoloured surface bubbles from manufacture. Tiny nick to corner on lower rear body. A few scratches and one or two scuff marks. An early bottle from this partnership prior to Henry Francis being on his own, this is a rare bottle! Grade: 7.4 Estimate: $50 - 75
