One 1 Pint Warrnambool milk (base mark 497) is very good with pretty much just some surface rust and stain, much of which will clean off. Impact or two. Some scuffs, scratches and minor marks. The second one is also VG with some fisheyes, inner dirt which should clean out and some scuffs and scratches scattered around. The third pint one has heavier embossing. This has a lip fracture, the same dirt that needs to be cleaned off, some scuffs and scratches. There is an impact flake to the lower right side. Some fisheyes. The aqua half pint has a fair bit of grime and dirt. Some scratches and a bit of haze. Impact to upper lip. One of the clear half pint Warrnambool milks, which is earlier than the aqua one, has some lip fisheyes. Rust stain under the base. Stained internally. Scattered scuffs and scratches with a few impact marks. The lighter aqua half pint has some stain and a few rusty looking spots. Some surface fractures under the base. A little fine opalescence. Some scuffs and scratches. A few impact marks. One of the 1 pint foil top bottles has a considerably wider lip. This is from the Geelong Milk Distributors, with a G under the base. This has rusty looking stain throughout. Small angled fracture to lip. Some scuffs and scratches with a couple of impact marks. The second one pint foil top bottle is from Sandhurst Dairies. A little inner dirt. Flake at lower body has an angled fracture going either side of it, actually loops around to form a 30 x 15 mm bruise which is quite fine. Scuffs, scratches and some impact marks. The round half pint is pretty good, no makers names. Some inner dirt and some scratches scattered around. Mibbled flake near base edge. The square one is quite dirty. A few scratches, but should clean up well. The wire crate is pretty good. Some surface corrosion, but generally really nice nick. Not sure if this was for milk bottles or not, but the pint's fit nicely! Fits 20 bottles. Grade: N/A Estimate: $$100.00 - $150.00
