G. Wilmot, / Brewed / Ginger / Beer / Colac. (Impressed stamp) The Bendigo Pottery / Epsom / Bendigo. (Victoria) (larger variety) Ginger Beer Cork Stoppered Dump shape. Blue Lip. Black Print. 10 oz. 170 mm. 1910s
Very Good. Front base edge has two chips: 14 x 7 mm and 14 x 5 mm. Around the rest of the base are another three or four chips. All of these appear to be fired over suggesting bottle was pretty roughly taken from the potters wheel during manufacture. There is some slight wear to the blue lip and a little discolouration throughout the glaze. Wilmot placed 3 or 4 orders with Bendigo Pottery between 1910 and 1914 and this and the previous bottle clearly came from different batches as they are quite different looking. Grade: 7.5 Estimate: $80 - 120
