    Description

    Esslinger's Premium Beer half pint shell glass in VERY GOOD condition. Condition is "used"
    I collect these glasses, so I inspect them very closely. I grade each glass according to the scale at the bottom of this description page, please take the time to read and understand the scale. If there are any chips, cracks, or notable damage I will mention it in the primary description below. Please contact me if you have any questions.
    8oz, 4 3/8" tall glass in VERY GOOD condition. Please look closely at all photos for an accurate understanding of condition. I'm grading this glass harder than I should because the label is slightly faded, the glass is in great shape overall. Distributor produced glasses are generally very rare and can be the only examples of some labels. There's no way to know how many were ever produced, but it could be as low as 144, which is the minimum order that could be placed with a printer. I don't focus on distributor labels, so I'm not the most knowledgable on it, but this is the only Herb Cornwell I've ever seen.
    These old beer glasses are perfect for display or every day use. Grab this one today and enjoy your next happy hour in style! I list vintage beer glasses every week. Please have a look through my other listings and check back in regularly!
    GRADING SCALE:
    PRISTINE = no identifiable wear marks of any sort, the glass is like new.
    NEAR-PERFECT = less than 5 minimal, very light wear marks identifiable only using a light source and looking very closely.
    EXCELLENT = up to 15 light wear marks around the glass, such as rub marks and micro-scratches, but no true scratches. Possibility of very minor chip/scratch in the label if there are no other wear marks on the glass.
    VERY GOOD = similar number of wear marks as excellent rating, just a little more noticeable. Possibility of a light scratch ring on the bottom surface. Possibility of a minor chip or scratch in the label, nothing obvious.
    GOOD = many light wear marks with the possibility of 1-2 minor scratches somewhere on the glass. Noticeable scratch ring on the bottom surface likely. Possibility of minor label damage.
    WELL USED = lots of wear and/or multiple obvious scratches. Heavy scratch ring on the bottom surface likely. Significantly faded or damaged label possible.
    DAMAGED = cracked, chipped, or very heavily worn glass.
