Excellent. This one is in remarkably good shape for syphon that has been re-used in a different factory. P. G. Dixon closed (was in fact bought out by OT) in 1918 and Halls have at some point purchased some of the old syphons by the looks of it. There is a bit of crate wear around this one. Typically at the widest part near the base there are a few fisheyes and small nicks etc. The main print is really good, the Hall sandblasting is well struck as well. All in all a lovely syphon. Grade: 8 Estimate: $30 - 50
