Sold for A$200
Phillip Haughey / (Kangaroo) / Murrumburrah. Base: 257. (New South Wales). Aerated Water. Codd. Dobson or Four way type. Spun finished top. Aqua. 10 oz. 233 mm. 1910s
Fair. (5.5). A great looking bottle but there is a fine 55 mm crack around the front neck just below the start of the top. Some little flakes and nibbles inside the lip. Light usage wear type scuffs over the surface. There is just some slight discolouration inside the crack in places. Little heel flake and a small flake to lower body. This bottle was a family heirloom kept at the time of use when leaving Murrumburrah. Given the way it looks it would seem it was actually used with the crack there, either Mr Haughey or his employees missed it or didn't care that it was there! (This is the same bottle that we sold in Auction 26).. Estimate: $100-150
