Excellent. Don't recall seeing a better example of this scarce A base mark variety. The A seems to stand for Austral Glass Works who took over Moonee Valley Glass Works in Brunswick. There are some light scratches and scuffs to the surface. The embossing is very strong and crude. A little bit of rust on the top. Great bottle. Grade: 8.4 Estimate: $$150.00 - $200.00
