Scuffs and scratches scattered around. 8. Good. Dip to upper front left lip, this is where the lip has been round a bit to lessen flaking. A few fine flakes and some other wear around the lip. A few fisheyes. Some scratches and scuffs. Chipping to the C of Co. 9. Ungraded as this is about the label, not the bottle. The bottle is heavily stained, has a lip crack, pits, nicks, wear and etching throughout. The label does not belong to this bottle, it has been stuck on in recent yeas. The label is an original label, just not to this bottle. There is a piece missing to the left side of the label, it is also discoloured with some wear. Probably a 1920s label, maybe a bit later? Estimate: $50-100
