Sold for A$200
The Cascade Brewery / Company Ltd / Hobart. No base mark. Beer Ring Seal Round, applied top, green, 26 oz. 307 mm. 1890s
Excellent. 2 tiny nibbles to lip, couple light scratches to ring around top, some very fine annealing marks from where top was applied to bottle. Appears to be four or five scratches to the internal surface in the neck region, possibly from making as there is a similar swirl type mark to the external surface of the glass, whirling its way around the bottle two or three times. Tiny flake half-way down rear neck with three impact marks slightly further down which are small. There is a small impact mark near right-hand side base, and a few impact marks and fisheyes near the base, all minor. Some scratches and scuffs to be found here and there. Lettering is very well embossed, predominantly unmarked but the first "A" of "Cascade" has some nibbling with some minor high point wear to some of the other lettering of "Cascade". Overall a great example of a super looking beer from Tassie, with lovely whittled glass. Grade: 8.2 Estimate: $200 - 250
