1. Very Good. Couple of little glaze nicks to the upper and lower lip. Great colouration to the neck glaze. 6 x 5 mm chip to front base edge, to right of this is a 11 x 4 mm chip, both of these have glaze pooling around them and so are from making, but are still there. Flake to right rear base edge. Some spots of discolouration with some minor scratches and bits of wear. Found by Dennis O'Hoy in 1968, 47 years after 20 gross were made at the Bendigo Pottery in 1921. Here we are a mere 49 years later selling it on behalf of Dennis O'Hoy! (7.6). 2. Good. A few small flakes around the lip. Plenty of grime scattered throughout. Some minor wear to shoulder edge with one or two little flakes and a glaze miss to boot. Hairline from shoulder to base down the left side is discoloured with an impact flake in the middle of it adjacent to the stamp. Another hairline goes across this flake horizontally. Some minor base marks. Discolouration throughout. This one is from the Dennis O'Hoy collection. (6.2). Grade: N/A Estimate: $40 - 50
