(Victoria & New South Wales) Ginger Beer Cork Stoppered Dump. All Tan. Black Print. 10 oz. 175 mm. 1890s
Excellent. 6 x 2 mm glaze flake on top of the lip. Crazing throughout. Some pinprick marks at the shoulder. The base edge has a few flakes most being only 1-2 mm with the largest being 5 x 1.5 mm up the bottle - so still quite small! Some very light surface marks. One of the best examples we've seen of these attractive ginger beers. Grade: 8.5 Estimate: $300 - 400
