Wm Champion / Melville Street / Hobart Town. Potters stamp: Stephen Green & Co / Patent / Double Glazed / Lambeth. (Tasmania). Ginger Beer. Impressed. Dump. All White. Impressed. 10 oz. 164 mm. 1850s
Very Good. (7.7). Little indent on top of the right lip but I think it is from making. Shoulder has a glazed over "chip" at the front and then a couple of other actual chips to the left of 7 x 4 and 4 x 4 mm. Body is just a bit worn with some scratches and scuffs. Also a couple of sticker marks. Base edge is very good with just a 7 x 3 mm indent or chip at the back left. Nice stamps. Good example of an early ginger beer. Estimate: $300-600
