A. E. Avenell / Trade Mark / (Emu) / Bundaberg. Base Mark: Triangle. Aerated Water Cork Stoppered Applied top, tooled finish. Dump shape, blob top corker. Aqua. 13 oz. 160 mm. 1910s
Very Good. Polished. The Trade Mark writing is difficult to read now, and the legs of the emu have almost disappeared. The bottle has a shiny gloss all over from the polishing, the seams are clear. There is evidence still of some scratches, and a few fisheyes and pit marks are still evident, mainly around the right shoulder and the right base area. Inner neck is slightly hazy with light scratches, and there is a very fine internal haze throughout as well. There are a few fine fisheyes to the lip. A solid enough example of a visually attractive dump corker. Grade: 7.3 Estimate: $300 - 400
