1. Excellent. Some surface grime to be found, this will soak out. Short dark scratch to left neck. Couple of rusty marks to lower rear. Just a few scratches otherwise, this is a prime example. (8.7). 2. Fair. Nibbled, bruised flake over 17 mm to right rear lip. There is a bruised fracture in the same region to the right lip over about 30 x 15 mm. Couple of other lip flakes and fisheyes. Some inner stain. Crate wear throughout, plenty of scuffs and scratches from a fair bit of usage over the years. The ceramic label is non existent, pretty much just a ghosted area where it once was. (5.3). 3. Very Good. 7 x 5 mm irregular flake to upper left lip. Inner wad seat on left side is a little flaked. Impacted flaked section over about 13 mm to the right base heel. Some impacts and fisheyes around the lip. A few fisheyes to body, one or two little surface bruises as well. Crate wear throughout, this has seen a bit of use. Nice design to the front. (7.0). Grade: N/A Estimate: $40 - 60
