Rowlands late / Rowlands & Lewis / Ballarat / Melbourne / & Sydney // Trade / (Shield) / (Miner & Farmer) / (Coat of Arms) / Mark. (Victoria & New South Wales). Aerated Water. Torpedo. Torpedo. Applied top. Aqua. 10 oz. 243 mm. 1880s
Very Good. (7.1). Dull down the front half over the trade mark side, this stain includes heavily scuffed scratching, a deep pitted scratch at the top and some little fisheyes and impact marks. It is like this section has been exposed for years and copped all of the elements, with the rest being buried and therefore more protected. Some little spots of surface rust. Some other scratches to the shiny side. This variation is without the registration date, but still has late Rowlands & Lewis on it - normally these earlier dateless ones just have E. Rowlands and the city names. Estimate: $40-60
