The Property / of the / Cascade Brewery Company / Limited, Hobart. No potters mark. Ginger Beer Cork Stoppered Impressed, tan top. 13 oz. 178 mm. 1880s
Excellent. Great Tasmanian pottery ginger beer, made by Campbells pottery. Tiniest of lip pinpricks. Tiny spot of wear to shoulder. Front base has a tiny 3 x 2 mm flake. Left side under base is a 12 x 4 mm chip. There are a few more small glaze flake type marks around the base edge. Very speckled glaze. The impression is very strong, the oval is clearly visible all the way around the impression, even the square slug plate impression is slightly visible at the lower left. A superb example of this truly Tasmanian piece! Grade: 8.8 Estimate: $150 - 200
