This bottle is the property of / L. L. Castle / Stone / Ginger / Beer / Bundaberg. Potters stamp: Pearson & Co / Whittington Moor. Second stamp reads: Made in / England. (Queensland) Ginger Beer Crown Seal Two tone, tan top, off white body. Black Print. 13 oz. 215 mm. 1930s
Good. 7 x 5 mm flake to front lip. I think there is a shallow glaze flake to rear lip as well, but there are two glaze misses near this, so maybe it is a glaze miss? 180 mm discoloured hairline to most of the length of the rear. Some rusty looking discolouration in places. Interesting glaze has an orange peel effect in places from making. I have never seen a ginger beer made by Pearson & Co, who are well known for making some of the best demijohns in Australia. Grade: 6.5 Estimate: $50 - 75
