1. Very Good. Heavily stained, although not etched. Tiny surface flake to front lip edge. Scratching to inner neck. Small burst bubble. Fisheyes and impact marks scattered around. Some little pitted scratches and marks. Some other scratches and scuff marks. 2. Very Good. Some stain. Couple of impact nicks. Some fisheyes and other impacts. Some scratches and the odd scuff mark. Inner dirt looks like it will soak out. Interesting generic example, the makers stamp is situated nicely mid bottle. 3. Good. Heavily stained throughout. 10 mm fracture to inner lip, this does not go all the way through. Nibbles and impacts to outer lip edge. Patch of flaking near the M of Moore is likely where some adhered rust has popped off. A few small impact flakes and nibbles to base edge. Some impacts and fisheyes to the body. Scratches and scuffs throughout. Not sure I have seen a Maitland Moore like this? Grade: N/A Estimate: $40 - 60
