FAR FROM ANY SHADE OF AQUA. (IN MY OF COURSE UNBIASED OPINION, ON A SERIOUS NOTE JUST CHECK OUT THE PICTURES) IT IS THE MISSPELLED VARIANT MISSING ONE L IN MASSILLON. (ANY ADDITIONAL INFO. ON THIS BOTLE WOULD BE APPRECIATED) EMBOSSED: TERRY & BARIL MASSILON.O (Massilon misspelled) IT HAS A SUPER COOL TAPER TOP, A PROMINENT IRON PONTIL SCAR JUST LOADED WITH A DARK GRAY/BLACK RESIDUE. THIS BOTTLE HAS BEEN TUMBLED TO A BEAUTIFUL DISPLAY PIECE RETAINING NEARLY ALL IF NOT ALL OF A STRONG STRIKE; ITS ONLY REAL FLAW IS A SMALL CHIP ON THE LOWER EDGE OF THE TAPER TOP(not seen unless looked for) APROX. 1/8TH OF AN INCH IN DIAMETER, I BELIEVE I HAVE CLEARLY PICTURED IT, OTHER THAN THAT AND A FEW LIGHT SPARODIC SCRATCHES THIS THING IS BEAUTIFUL. I’VE PICTURED IT NEXT TO A VARIETY OF GREENS AND AQUAS TO SHOW JUST HOW COOL, IT IS, (in my of course once again unbiased opinion), A COLORED SODA, A SHADE OF GREEN AND NOT AQUA, I REALIZE COLOR IS SUBJECT TO THE EYE OF THE BEHOLDER SO PLEASE LET THE PICTURES HELP YOU DECIDE AS THE BOTTLE DISPLAYS EXACTLY AS PICTURED. TEAL GREEN/BLUE GREEN???? A FRICKING SWEET SHADE OF GREEN TO SAY THE LEAST!!!!!!!!!!!!! ~WOW~ ~THIS THING IS~ ~GORGEOUS~ Insurance is required in addition to an $8.00 shipping fee; all bottles are shipped priority the day or the day after payment is secured, guaranteed! You will be sent a copy of the receipts and tracking numbers, also the day the bottle is sent, Payment is expected in 5 days THANKS MUCH FOR YOUR TIME AND CONSIDERATION RALPH On May-08-08 at 06:13:36 PDT, seller added the following information:Please Note: There appears to be a small imperfection/nick? on the upper shoulder of the bottle, maybe a miniture popped air bubble or an ancient inclusion in the glass, its hard to see, can't be pictured as I tried in all kinds of lighting, but can be felt. I have inspected it closely, with a magnifying glass actually and it does not have any spider cracks ect. steming from it. One other thing, this bottle does still as I mentioned retain light scratching in spots as I did not wish to compromise the bottles strong stike any further, predominently on the back side one small spot just a little heavirer on one shoulder, these are not seen unless actually held up to a light/the sun as I did and carefully searched for. The front of the bottle is near pefect, the embossing being free from any scratching/wear marks, it is clean and crisp and free from any defects. I am mentioning all of this as I beleive this is a one time chance for some lucky collector who's been searching for a wonderful example of this variant and in no way wish to mislead any one, no its not attic mint, but it is a beauty, the pictures really don't lie, the scratching can not be seen in the numerous photographs I've taken trying to show them for complete accuracy but I feel necassary to mention them again. At any rate it seems unlikely a better example will ever show up for sale anytime soon. Ya never know, I don't have one anyway and don't beleive theres many to be had. Again any information on this bottle would be appreciated just to satisfy my thirst for facts on early life in the midwest, hell there where still indians raiding farms around here in the 1840-1850's. It was still really was the frontier when this bottle was made. The color is just killer, if you require any additional photos this can be done, just let me know what you wish to see and I'll try to photogragh it as best I can and send it to your e-mail address. Thanks for taking the time to read this, I hope it helps you bid accordingly. I don't beleive there is anything else I could possibally mention as far as flaws/damage on this bottle, it is a in my opinion (of course) A GOTTA HAVE SODA THANKS AGAIN for YOUR TIME and CONSIDERATION RALPHOn May-08-08 at 07:13:07 PDT, seller added the following information:I have added one more picture held with the sun directly behind it on a bright blue day hoping to show any flaws or scratching which I still don't think can be seen but I tried, as well as another shot of the color on a different day at a different time. Thanks
