Geo. H. Nelson / Brisbane. Smooth base. (Queensland) Aerated Water Codd Dobson or Four way type. Applied top. Aqua. 26 oz. 272 mm. 1900s
Fair. Oiled internally. Minor nibbles to upper lip, there is a fracture running around the upper lip about 20 mm in this same section. In the middle of this is a fine fracture coming down the lip about 25 mm, and again at the end is another 25 mm fine fracture coming down. Both of these fine fractures are very hard to see, those types of fractures that can only be seen on a certain angle. There is a third shorter one that I just noticed at the front of the bottle as well, about 17 mm. There is a large burst bubble to the rear body, 13 x 10 mm and the bottle here is quite flat from manufacture. Crate wear around the shoulder. Scuffs and scratches throughout. Some wear to highpoints of the upper lettering, a few letters at the bottom have flakes as well. Small burst bubble near rear base. (Same bottle as appeared back in Auction 9, Lot 74). Grade: 5.8 Estimate: $100 - 150
