(Victoria) Pot Lid Ointment Plain pot and base but with black and white label to lid and red and white label sealing pot and base together. 54 mm diameter. 1900s
Very Good. Lid and base seem fine with some crazing and minor glaze flakes. Label on the lid has a tear to the top part. Red label around the middle is dirty. Has some small tears and contents stain in one section. Really interesting piece however. Charlotte & Alexander Allison registered this brand in late 1899 and there is some advertising around showing they sold it through some big distributors around Victoria. Shame they didn't have printed lids but this is a nice piece nonetheless especially from such a tiny place as Raglan! Grade: N/A Estimate: $30 - 40
