A. Simpson & Son / Trade Mark / (Eagle-Hawk) / Eaglehawk / British Syphon Co London / Rd. No. 762. Base Mark: Rd. No. 565191. Spout is from A. Simpson & Son. (Victoria) (James A. Lerk Collection) Aerated Water Soda Syphon Pyramid shape. Apricot. 30 oz. 314 mm with spout. 1920s
Very Good. Some corrosion to the spout. The spout is firmly stuck in place so we have not removed it to check the lip, but presume it is all fine. Soda residue staining. Fisheye to front shoulder. A few small fisheyes and impacts around the base edge. Some grime externally. Some minor wear to ribs near base and some scratches. This is considerably better than usual for a soda syphon with few of the normal usage marks. This is from the James A. Lerk collection. Grade: 7.7 Estimate: $150 - 200
