Central / Carlisle / Street, / Glanville. / Ginger / Beer / Co-Op. C. & M. Waters Ltd. Potters stamp: Bendigo Pottery / 23 / Epsom. (South Australia). Ginger Beer. Crown Seal. Two tone, tan top, off white body. Dump. 10 oz. 175 mm. 1920s
Near Mint. (9.2). Wow! Tiniest of glaze nicks to rear lip. Small patch of minor surface wear to the glaze to the outer lower lip. Tiniest of nicks to front shoulder. Texta mark says 1916-28 under base. Some minor spots of surface glaze wear in places. A few tiny nicks to base edge are likely making marks. Mid right neck has a minor glaze scuff. Can I say it again? Wow! South Australia's best ginger beer? I would have said the Lameroo ginger beer originally, but that is before I knew this existed! I couldn't believe it when I unpacked this, I had never seen one before. Talking to seasoned collectors in South Australia, they were aware of one or two existing, but none have ever been on the open market, until now. Fabulous colouration with the dark varied neck glaze and amazing condition overall, if you want a stand out in your South Australian ginger beer collection, this is it! Don't miss this once in a lifetime opportunity. Estimate: $7500-10000
