Sold for A$15

The / Property of / Morris Bros / Purveyors of / Pure Milk & Cream / 370 Montague St / Albert Park // Specially Clarified & Pasteurised / Pure Milk. Base: M403 / AGM / 1. (Victoria). Household. Dairy. Wide mouth or wad top. Seam through lip. Clear. 1 Pint. 205 mm. 1930s

Very Good. (7.8). Some dirt and grime which will soak out. Making fold or two to be found. Maybe a fine scratch or two. Couple of tiny spots of wear to the embossing. 8 mm line to left lip along the seam I thought was the seam, but this is a surface fracture, an annealing type mark. This bottle is full of tiny bubbles. An early bottle, this is presumably quite rare, it has a similar stamp on it to the screw top jars from this company. Interesting that they have used Clarified Milk on the bottle as well, not a term I have seen often on bottles. This is the first we have sold. Estimate: $50-75
