N/A. (N/A). 1. Fair. It would take a while to list all the bruises and marks individually! 10 mm fracture in the lip plus numerous other bruise and fisheyes. On a quick count around the neck and shoulder there are another 11 small to moderate bruises and fractures. Probably only a handful more bruises at the embossing level but there is a 20 mm fracture over the T of Returned and anothre 20 mm fracture under the base. Base edge has a few marks as well. Otherwise dull and some stain. Good strong embossing. An ok shelfie in my opinion, it's not in imminent danger of falling apart but it is rough. 2. Good. Back top and lip has a bruise that goes over about 20 x 12 mm. Scuffy surface. Some rust stuck on the lip. Other little impact marks and the like over the surface. Solid enough example and hard to get. 3. VG. A bit hazy inside. Fairly minor wear outside. Nice bottle. (late Ern Taylor Collection). Estimate: $50-100
