Very Good. (7.2). Fisheye to upper lip. A bit scratched, mostly around the shoulder region. Some inner base dirt should soak out. Print is a bit faded, the bottom writing even more so being quite ghosted in places. This is definitely a Western Australian bottle, in 1939 a newspaper article stated "Milk Bottles with the words "Cartwrights Pasteurised Vita Milk" stencilled or moulded thereon are the property of H. H. Cartwright, Mt. Hawthorn.". Estimate: $100-150
