Sold for A$180

P. Mathews & Co / Trade (Harp) Mark / Geelong // M.G.B.Co. (Victoria) Aerated Water Torpedo Applied top. Aqua. 13 oz. 245 mm. 1880s

Very Good. Impact to right upper lip has a 13 x 5 mm associated inner lip bruise. Left shoulder mark looks like a spot of wear, but is likely a making mark. The harp has a couple of nibbled surface flakes, small flake to one of the M's, rest of the heavy embossing is good. Tiny impact nick to lower rear neck. Grime throughout which should clean up somewhat. Might still be a tad of haze afterwards inside? Couple of fisheyes. Some scratches and light scuffs. Tiny nick to front near D of trade. A great looking bottle, we have not sold one of these for some time now. Grade: 7.2 Estimate: $150 - 200
