Sold for A$970

Certified / Trade (Shield around a cross with CM in middle) Mark / Milk Company / Melbourne. Base Mark: M. Household Milk Applied top, lightning stopper. 1 pint, aqua. 252 mm without stopper. 1890s

Very Good. There is a sliver chip to left side of top (9 x 13 mm but quite shallow). Externally there are several scuffs and scratches, none of which are deep. There are several fisheyes, all of which are shallow, and small. Mostly they are around the base. There is an unusual surface bubble on the O of Melbourne, this is not damage. The lettering is generally fine with only some minor marks. Some minor external wear, there is some light internal haze, mainly at rear and down the sides. This does come with the original ceramic stopper, but the wire has rusted totally and so the stopper only sits in place. Grade: 7.35 Estimate: $400 - 500
