Very Good. (7). Stained throughout, has an etched feel in places. A few minor fisheyes and impact marks. Some scratches including a few pitted examples. Short discoloured scratch to neck. A little high point wear to some of the embossing. This has a blue ceramic marble firmly stuck in the neck, yes - a marble! And so I have to beg the question - does that make this a hybrid! Presumably a hard to get variety, we have never sold one of these before, even without the marble! Estimate: $100-150
