Fisheyes and impact marks as well. Also has scuffs and scratches scattered around. Nibbled crate wear across the embossing. We have sold a few variations of these before, but never this one with the odd Adelaide Glass Bottle Wks makers mark to the rear, in fact, not sure I have seen that mark before? 3. VG.

Crate wear to lower embossing, main upper embossing is quite good, and strong for a bottle of this later age.
