Not Sold

Weeks & White / Trade (Bulls Head) Mark / Canterbury Road Toorak // WW Monogram. Aerated Water Torpedo Applied top. Aqua. 10 oz. 239 mm. 1880s-1890s

Very Good. Would grade much better but has been scraped when found and there are small surface chips and deep scratches over the face starting from the right seam line and going through the WEEKS & WHITE embossing. This misses the picture but there is another chip near the front base on the edge of a burst bubble that cuts half the K off the work MARK. Some more scratches come off this mark and include some wear on TOORAK and a little fisheye between this and ROAD. There is some internal haze and scattered about a few of the usual minor marks. Lip has a pin prick mark or two. An inner bubble is at the surface. It's a pretty good example of a rare pictorial torpedo. Grade: 7 Estimate: $1500 - 2000
