N/A. (N/A). 1. VG. Stained inside. Fold over the lip from making with a little impact mark next to it. 5 x 3 mm bruise on one front edge down near the DS of Liquids in the embossing. Not a lot of other marks around. Should clean up brilliantly. 2. Good. Unusual and different to any we have sold before. The crudity of it suggests this was made at one Melbourne's smaller glassworks and not the Melbourne Glass Works themselves. Unfortunately it has an impact mark at the right base edge that has then created a massive 65 x 25 mm bruise under the base. A 5 x 4 mm chip or partially burst bubble at the front base edge. Stained inside. Some scuffs and scratches. Yet another variation of Brookes cordial! Estimate: $50-100
