Y. P. M. W. Co / Minlaton. Potters Stamp: Pinnacle / Brand. (South Australia) Ginger Beer Cork Stoppered All White. Black print. 10 oz. 174 mm. 1910s
Very Good. Small scrape to front lip is just through the glaze. Minor upper lip wear. Discoloured scratch to rear. Just around from this is a rusty looking line that is either another discoloured scratch or a fine glaze hairline over about 40 mm. Glaze miss to right base edge has a small dint below it from making. Looks to have had some pink paint down the left side which has remnants remaining in little scratches and glaze nicks. A little discolouration in places. Lump to front is a making mark. Some scratches and minor marks. Interestingly, we have only sold one of these rare bottles before, but it had a different potters stamp! A rare South Australian bottle from the Yorke Peninsula Mineral Water Company in Minlaton. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $1000 - 1250
