J. P. Hill / Trade JPH Monogram Mark / Lilydale. Base: KBC Monogram / 5853. Aerated Water Lamont Ledge mouth, bullet stoppered type. Applied top. Aqua. 10 oz. 230 mm. 1890s
Very Good. We've cleaned this up a bit but it does just need a bit more of a soak. There is still some grime on the bottle, but you can clearly see that it is in nice condition. There is some light dullness in places and scattered fine scuffs and scratches. A couple of really minor little fisheye type marks can be found if you look really closely. A little 3 x 2 mm surface flake under the base, a 3 x 1 mm and 2 mm x less than 1 mm flake off the underside of the lip where it meets the neck. Also there is a weird little impact or mould mark measuring 3 x 4 mm on the lower part of the lip. Some very light wear to the very heavy embossing. All in all a really nice example of a scarce Lamont. Grade: 7.8 Estimate: $100 - 150
