J. Eastman / (Fancy cartouche or logo) / Broken Hill. Potters Stamp: George Skey / Wilnecote / Tamworth. (New South Wales) Ginger Beer Cork Stoppered Dump shape. All White. Black Print. 12 oz. 175 mm. 1900s
Excellent. Rear base edge has a couple of little nibbled flakes, which may be from making. Difficult to grade really because it is close to perfect in one respect, except that it has crazing throughout with a few of the lines bordering on hairlines. Whilst from making, they are there and they do detract a little. Some of the crazing is discoloured red, other parts have a smoky discolouration. Some minor spots of wear and a few scratches to be found. Interesting bottle, a bit unusual with the George Skey potters mark. Grade: 8 Estimate: $50 - 75
