I will tell you right now. Its the real thing, iron pontil and all.
There is a reproduction of the bottle but it would fool no one.
Very common in aqua/scarce in amber. You have a nice
authentic Union clasped hands Calabash bottle.

Since he doesn't collect these, what it's worth depends on how much he paid for it.. he might be able to double that and be quite content...
