P. Mathews & Co / (Harp embossed across the seam line) // Trade Mark / Geelong. (Victoria) Aerated Water Torpedo Applied top. Aqua. 13 oz. 237 mm. 1880s
Good. Polished. 45 mm crack to neck has a star crack at one end of it. Some work around outer lip to lessen fisheyes, maybe a small flake polished over. A few surface flakes. Some fisheyes and impact marks. A few pitted marks. A few flakes to the embossing and some spots of wear, but pretty good in general. Evidence on body of the preparation for the polish job with some flat areas and so forth. Having said that, this looks quite good and is unusual having a trade mark across the seam. Grade: 6 Estimate: $75 - 125
