Repaired. It is difficult to tell, but we can only presume that the entire top from the shoulder upwards has been repaired, as has a small section where it dips down into the lettering on the printed side. 27 x 6 mm repair to base on pictorial side. 19 x 4 mm repair to side. 18 mm horseshoe hairline coming up through the lower part of sauce. Tiny repair to the left of this. Overpainting around most of inner base, there may be some minor inner base chips that have been repaired? This wold just be a gap filler for the collection, being offered purely because it is a very rare pratt with an Australian theme! Grade: 1 Estimate: $50 - 75
