Melbourne Homœopathic / Hamamelis / Cerate / Prepared by / Martin & Pleasance / 85, Collins St / East / Pharmacy. Pot Lid Ointment Australian round Pot Lid. Black print on white. Small size. (This is a smaller variation of the lid listed as No. 36, "Collecting Australian Pot Lids", by Robert Keil). Note on Era: Given where these have been found they appear to be used later than listed in Keil's book. 66 mm diameter. 1900s
Excellent. Would be Near Mint but has two small marks on the outer rim: One at 12 o'clock measuring 1 x 1 mm and just through the glaze; and an impact/scratch measuring 5 mm but very thin at around 10 o'clock. There are four fairly insignificant flakes off the bottom of the flange - 4 x 3 mm, 4 x 2 mm, 2 x 2 mm and 2 x 1 mm. All of these are very shallow. Super looking lid and very rare in any size. Grade: 8.8 Estimate: $1000 - 1250
