Chutnee . Flavored / Ross / & / Co / Tomato . Sauce. No base mark. Household Sauce Applied top. Deep red amber. 13 oz. 226 mm. 1900s
Very Good. Oiled internally. Hazy throughout. There are some scuffs and scratches to be found. Should polish up a treat. The embossing is rather odd, the upper part seems to be slightly indented into the bottle, the lower part seems to be slightly raised. To explain further, the outer tramtrack is not actually an embossed line at all, at the bottom of the badge it is a raised section, on each side of the badge it is actually an embossed line and then at the top of the badge it is a recessed section. Extremely odd really. As for the bottle - we have never seen one before! This is from the firm of Ross & Co of Fremantle who were in business in the early 1900s! A superb rarity, a must for any sauce collector! Grade: 7.7 Estimate: $200 - 250
