This bottle is / the property of / J. M. Seward & Co // (Inverted Horse Shoe). Base Mark: AGM. (Western Australia) Spirits Liqueur Applied top, tooled finish. Crecent moon shaped flask type bottle. Amber. 6 oz. 156 mm. 1920s
Excellent. JM Seward & Co were in Bazaar Terrace, Perth. They supplied all manner of alcoholic liqueurs, champagne, sherry, brandy, whisky - the list goes on. This bottle could have held any one of those. The curved shape lends itself to curving around ones body, and so this may well have been a form of hip flask. A few spots of inner dirt should wash out to leave a most unusual bottle in close to mint condition - and it is quite early too! Grade: 8.9 Estimate: $30 - 40
