Moonee / Valley Coy / Melbourne // (Horseshoe) / (Horse & Jockey over Fence) / Trade Mark. Base: 8434. Aerated Water Codd Dobson or Four way type. Applied top. Aqua. 10 oz. 239 mm. 1890s
Good. Polished. 5 x 4 mm little chip/bruise to the outside of the back lip. A couple of very shallow upper lip flakes may have been polished over to minimise their appearance? Some nibbling under the applied lip has been smoothed over as well. A lot of surface pitting and impact marks can be found around the surface of the bottle, particularly near the base, including a horseshoe fracture following the contour of a bubble near the surface. The polish has been very heavy in places and some of the details of the trade mark can't be seen. Plenty of fisheyes and impact marks remaining in general. OK shelf bottle. Grade: 6 Estimate: $100 - 150
