Comments/description: Nearly impossible to find on-grade, this example is a great-looking indoor alternative with two pretty strong display faces. Likely one of the nicest examples from a renowned barn find from many years ago as the oxidation is limited and the seam and spout are still quite clean. Oxidized areas are rough to the touch but the unaffected areas still shine. All items are original unless otherwise noted. For questions, feedback, or to sell a similar item contact Dan via email.

Condition

Small soft crease on the center of one face may not be evident. The same is true of a few small handling dings here and there.
