Very Good. The upper lip has flaking and wear around most of the circumference, the largest part of this is a 9 x 3 mm flake to front left lip which is not much deeper than glaze depth. 55 mm discoloured hairline to right side. White mark to the left of this is simply a making mark and not a scratch as it may appear. A little bit of glaze wear around the base area. Some scuffs and scratches to the glaze throughout, these are generally light. A solid example of a very rare ginger beer with the blob top, made by one of the Brunswick potteries. Grade: 7.3 Estimate: $100 - 150
