Dr Soule's // Hop // Bitters // 1872 / (Very large and ornate Hop Leaf and Fruit). Base Mark: (Dot). Spirits Bitters Applied top. Amber. 26 oz. 250 mm. 1880s

Very Good. Possibly polished. A little very fine haze and dirt in neck and inside in places. Some annealing marks to inner neck. Fine 8 x 3 mm fracture to lower shoulder on one corner. Little flake to front base edge on left is a bit rounded so we think it is polished. Nibbled mark to front base edge. Rear base edge has a couple of nibbled impact flakes. Spot of wear under heel from here. A few little pitted marks. Some scratches and minor marks. Great detail, this version with the large trade mark is quite a hard one to get. Not the Aussie version, but still rare overseas. A classic for any bitters collector. Grade: 7 Estimate: $100 - 150
