P. Mathews & Co / Trade (Harp) Mark / Geelong. (Victoria) (late Ern Taylor Collection). Aerated Water. Torpedo. Torpedo. Applied top. Aqua. 10 oz. 228 mm. 1890s
Very Good. (7.7). Some scratches and wear around. The odd pit mark. A bit dull. No big issues. Uniquely this one has a big indent in the back shoulder, has been pressed against something while still warm out of the mould. It is almost like a ridge to hold back an internal stopper. Embossing is brilliant. Strong example of a scarce bottle in this style. (late Ern Taylor Collection). Estimate: $300-400
