Little fracture to front upper left. Crate wear to the embossing. 2. VG. Some inner dirt looks like it will soak out, patch or two of grime externally should soak off as well. A few fisheyes around the base edge and one or two to the lip as well, and a few little examples to the body too. Some scratches and the odd scuff mark. A few nicks here and there. Some wear to some of the embossing, but mostly it is pretty good. Decent example. 3. VG. Some surface grime which will soak off, a bit of light haze as well. Some fisheyes and impact marks. Some scratches and the odd scuff mark, but nothing deep. Some nicks and minor spots of wear to the embossing in places. Some minor spots of rust as well. Solid example. 4. VG.

Series of darker fisheyes in a couple of patches near rear base edge and a few to front base edge too. Some other scuffs and scratches to be found. A bit of crate wear to some of the embossing. 5. VG. Hazy throughout, has a bit of an opalsecent sheen to it. Line of deeper scuffed scratches down front left shoulder. Some fisheyes and impact marks scattered around. Plenty of scratches and scuffs scattered around. Wear down the left gives this a bit of a atted appearance, this is not deep but is consistent. Interesting milk, looks like the rear embossing on a milk, but this is it, quite unusual really. We have never sold one of these before. Estimate: $50-100
