Sold for A$70
P. G. Dixon / & Co / Rosslyn St / Melbourne // (Rampant Demi lion) / Trade Mark. No base mark. (Victoria). Aerated Water. Cork Stoppered. Dump. Applied blob top. Aqua. 10 oz. 154 mm. 1890s
Fair. (5.8). Looks stunning from the trade mark side. The rear, however, has several chips to base edge, a couple of which are LARGE! One is 22 x 35 mm taking out the NE of Melbourne (and part of the R). This large chip has been partly filled. A 16 x 15 mm chip encroaches on the U, this has been partly filled. A smaller nibbled chip down from the first E of Melbourne. Couple of small impacts elsewhere to base edge. Some grime, a few scratches and minor marks to the body. One of the shiniest ones I have seen, still looks superb on display on the lion side. (Exact same example as sold back in Auction 28, Lot 94). Estimate: $100-200
