H. France / Trade (Deer) Mark / Sale // Trade (B) Mark. Aerated Water Torpedo Applied top. Aqua. 10 oz. 238 mm. 1890s
Very Good. Some scuff marks across the deer, above and over the lower part of the RAN of France. Looks like this small section has been sticking out of the ground with the surface getting worn over years, this, however, is not deep. Some inner dirt down the rear which will clean out. One or two really fine fisheyes. Just one or two scratches to be found. Superbly shiny and unmarked for the most part, this is an extremely rare torpedo bottle from Gippsland in country Victoria. Grade: 7.7 Estimate: $1250 - 1500
