J. Plummer / Trade / (Thistle) / Mark / South Melbourne. Base: Large P. (Victoria). Aerated Water Lamont Applied top. Aqua. 10 oz. 228 mm. 1890s
Very Good. One side just has some dullness and scratches. The inner lip has two very small marks of about 2-3 mm each. Also a 3 mm nibble to the back base edge. Still a bit of dirt inside. The embossing has a "ghosted" appearance - looks like the bottle has moved in the mould while the glass was still quite hot. This is a very nice as found example of the harder to get Australian made variety of this bottle (more often seen with a Kilner Bros base mark). Grade: 7.8 Estimate: $60 - 80
