Hunter Bros / Trade (Greyhound) Mark / Bendigo // M. G. B. Co. (Victoria) Aerated Water Torpedo Applied top. Aqua. 13 oz. 230 mm. 1880s
Fair. Polished. Remains of inner lip chip, the lip appears thinner than standard and so I am pretty sure it has been ground back. Scratches to inner neck. Dullness throughout. Chip near front base point has been ground out. Inclusion to mid inner rear has a short and fine surface fracture from it. Embossing has been rounded and flattened from the polish job, having said that, this is definitely an original Hunter and not one of those poorly manufactured fakes that surfaced a few years ago. Remains of scratches, fisheyes, some pits and surface impacts or flakes. Quite a hard bottle to get. Grade: 5 Estimate: $50 - 75
