Moore / (Rampant Lion) // Newcastle / & / Maitland. Indented base. Aerated Water Stick Bottle Hogben & Barrett Patent. Dark Teal. Applied top. 10 oz. 237 mm. 1880s
Very Good. Lip has a shallow 4 x 2 mm chip or scrape on the trade mark side. Other side of the lip has 4 or 5 little impact flakes and small surface fisheyes. A bit of dullness and scratching over the surface of the bottle. Has some dirt internally. Some wear to the embossing and the trade mark has come out of the mould quite weakly in places. The base has a small impact mark that may have a short surface fracture associated, this is hard to see and very shallow. Superb colour, probably just needs a bit of a tumble to show its best. Grade: 7.1 Estimate: $100 - 150
