O'Neill Bros / Trade (ONB Monogram) Mark / North Fitzroy / Paterson Bros // Port Melbourne. Base: O N / B. Aerated Water Codd One way or Codd original type. Applied top. Aqua. 10 oz. 240 mm. 1890s-1900s
Very Good. Glass is dull all over and quite scuffy and scratched throughout, but difficult to distinguish between this and just the straight out crudity of the bottle in some places. There is a very shallow 5 x 3 mm flake to the left side top lip. A 6 x 4 mm open bubble near the front base. On the front shoulder is an area 6 x 8 mm that could be flaking or equally a mould defect from manufacturing. There is some wear and a little bit of flaking to the lettering, especially the H of North and the upper left part of the monogram. Inclusion in right side top below the lip which has a very fine fracture 8 mm long through it, this is from making. Some fisheyes to be found. Could use a polish but a nice looking, crude marble bottle made by one of Melbourne's more unusual glassworks. Grade: 7.1 Estimate: $30 - 50
