H. Taylor / (HT monogram) / Melbourne // This bottle / cannot be sold or used / by any other person. Base Mark: T. Aerated Water Crown Seal Applied top, tooled finish. Aqua. 13 oz. 235 mm. 1910s
Excellent. Couple of tiny patches of inner stain, which may well wash out. Some light scuffs and scratches, mainly around the shoulder and base heel. Some nibbles to the upper embossing, a little flake or two as well, and a small flake to the trade mark. A little bit of minor nibbling to the rear embossing. Little open airbubble on right seam line has a little flake next to it. An amazing bottle, the embossing on this is the heaviest that we have ever seen. This is a very early crown seal, it may only be a Taylor's, but this is the earliest and best one you will ever see! Grade: 8 Estimate: $50 - 75
