J. Cock / Cordial / Maker / Gunnedah. Impressed stamp: obscured stamp that looks like Mauri Bros & Thomson? Ginger Beer Lightning Stopper Tall cylinder. Tan top, black print. 10 oz. 209 mm. 1900s
Repaired. The top has been replaced. There is a hairline right through the lower part of the print. A few other hairlines can be seen around the shoulder. The whole lower body of the bottle is all painted over - it is our guess that these hairlines & possibly cracks extend all around the bottle and the overpainting is to hide them. Only the print on the front has not been covered with paint. Rare bottle. There are three small chips under the back base edge. In red texta on the base are the initials J.B who it seems must be the repairer. This bottle (and three others in this auction) despite being repaired were part of an award winning ginger beer display from the 1970s-1980s. Grade: 0 Estimate: $500 - 600
