Busted beauty...

Oh, it's cracked all right and there's a not so pretty open bubble to boot (as you will see in the photos). BUT this is one of the tougher to find Townsend's molds (shorter and squatter than most and having an embossed nipple on one chamfered corner) and the color is GREAT. If perfect this is easily an $800 bottle and probably more than that. (It is not your typical $300 or $400 Townsend's.) Is "as found" condition I'll sell and ship this one for $110.

If I ever get lucky enough to dig one of those,...I hope it's not (exactly) like that one because I'd have two heart attacks,...One when I realized what it was, an another when I noticed the damage!,...What a beautiful bottle.
