Thomas Stokes / Trade (Kangaroo) Mark / Bunbury. No potters stamp. Ginger Beer Cork Stoppered Impressed. Dump shape. Blob top. Salt glaze. 10 oz. 170 mm. 1890s
Excellent. One of the best looking impressed ginger beers you could hope to see. The top of the lip on this one has worn type marks to the glaze pretty much around the entire circumference, but there is a ridge next to this which makes us think it is from manufacture. There are two or three marginally deeper flakes around the lip. Under the front left base is a shallow 10 x 3 mm chip. A little flake at the front left shoulder. A couple of scratches to be found on close inspection. Superb print, great looking bottle. Grade: 8.5 Estimate: $150 - 200
