Good. Looks ok and is in one piece but I count at least 12 small fractures and bruises around the bottle. Only light wear and marks otherwise. Great embossing and doesn't appear to be listed in the Milk bottle book - the Jersey Park Dairy is listed with the proprietor E. M. Parton and that bottle has a base mark of 480. Also the base mark 200 is listed as the Krithia Dairy of Northcote South. So here you go, despite the issues an interesting and unusual milk bottle. Grade: 6 Estimate: $30 - 50
