Sold for A$8,200
I. J. K. Cohn / Southern Cross / & / Coolgardie // Acme Patent / 4 / Sole Makers / Dan Rylands Ld / Barnsley. No base mark. (Western Australia). Aerated Water. Codd. Applied top. Acme Patent. Bright Blue. 10 oz. 237 mm. 1880s
Very Good. (7). Polished. No marble in this bottle. Fold to rear lip from making. Remains of etching around the embossing and a patch or two internally as well. Embossing is a bit flattened from the polish, but still looks quite good. Minor band of wear to the sharp lip edge. This is a bright pure blue colour which is quite a different colour to others that we have sold. A photograph is shown for comparison, with this one being the right hand example. Not sure I have seen another in this bright blue colour before. Note that this is the same example that we sold back in Auction 40, the vendor has now decided to move it on to another collector. Estimate: $5000-7500
