Chas. Cole & Co. / * / Trade (Bird & Fish) Mark / Ginger / Beer / Geelong. Impressed stamp: The Bendigo Pottery / Epsom / Bendigo. Ginger Beer Cork Stoppered Champagne shape. Blob top. Light tan top, off white base, black print. 10 oz. 202 mm. 1900s-1910s
Excellent. Just about the best stamp you will ever see on one of these. Around the base is a line of discoloured crazing, could almost be described as a hairline but is really too fine. There is a short hairline on the inner right top and a patch of rust on top of the back lip. A couple of tiny glaze flakes. Beautiful glaze and strong print make this example a standout. Grade: 8.6 Estimate: $100 - 150
