Excellent. This has the typical soda residue stain internally, however, it does not have much in the way of the other marks often found on soda syphons. There are half a dozen or so small fisheyes to the rear upper region, a couple of others elsewhere. A few scratches, again mainly to the rear. Some scratches to the pedestal part with a few small fisheyes, but nothing like the usual chips or dings that are found. Solid example of a very rare soda syphon from Broken Hill, we believe the W. H. is for W. Hepburn. This is the first example we have seen of this syphon. Grade: 8 Estimate: $300 - 500
