Yack Crystal / Yack / Trade Mark / Yackandandah / Registered / Spring Company. Base: M. (Victoria). Aerated Water. Codd. All Way Pour. Spun finished top. Aqua. 10 oz. 189 mm. 1910s
Good. (6.9). Polished. Remains of quite heavy wear with deep scratches all around the bottle. Looks ok overall and a nice deep colour. Yack Crystal Springs were set up by the Phibbs Bros of Albury with L. C. Phibbs in management. Given the look of the bottle this was a direct attack on the long established business of Hattersleys at Yackandandah. It seems however that the Crystal Springs didn't last long with its opening mentioned in 1916 and very little else. The bottles also seem to all belong to a single batch and are very scarce. This is the first example we have had through. Estimate: $200-400
