Richardson's / Wine & Spirit / Store. Base Mark: M / (Dot). (Victoria) Wine Cork Stoppered Applied top, tooled finish. Banded barrel shaped bottle. Aqua. 1/2 Gallon. 294 mm. 1910s
Very Good. Under the base is an impact mark that has a bruised fracture over about 26 x 15 mm, but in a crescent moon shape. This is entirely under the base and so does not detract at all. Small chip to band below the embossing. Smaller flake around to left from this. Spot of glass stuck to shoulder from making. A little surface grime. Some minor surface scuffs and scratches. Great embossing. You do not see many of these early wine bottles from Melbourne. Grade: 7.6 Estimate: $75 - 100
