Wire groove is flawless on this one how often can you say that about a Canadian Boston. Has some surface annealing lines in the dome as can be seen these are very shallow. Has a small open bubble/flake off one line in dome. Base has a very small shallow base bruise. This is a relist as I had previously sold but a cold delayed me in getting out for a few days and buyer was not happy about this and demanded refund his loss your gain. Email me for additional photos. Overall I would say condition wise is better than 95 percent of the ones I have handled. Great looking blue colour to boot. Asking 275.00 shipping included
