J. G. Spain / J. G. S. / Kyneton. // This bottle / is the property of / J. G. Spain / and must be returned / Kilner Bros Ltd / Makers / London. Base Mark: S. Aerated Water Codd Applied top, all way pour. Aqua. 13 oz. 229 mm. 1890s
Excellent. Light short scratch to front lip. Some grime in the upper region which will probably clean off. Patch of fine scratches to rear mid section just above the embossing. At side base at bottom of right hand seam is an impact fracture, 10 x 10 mm. Some inner haze and dirt, this should nearly all clean out with a good soak. Embossing is superb with only minor marks. This early Kilner made variation with extra writing on the rear would appear to be quite a bit harder to get than the later varieties. Grade: 8 Estimate: $75 - 100
