Lyceum Mutual Store Co / Wine & Spirit Merchants / Pall Mall / Sandhurst. No potters stamp. (Victoria) Demijohn Impressed Handled stoneware demijohn. Tan top. Impressed. 1/2 Gallon. 258 mm. 1880s
Good. Larger than the example sold in the last auction. Unusually, this has a POUND symbol rather than the AND symbol after WINE. The left side of the lip is heavily chipped right around including being flaked on the outer left lip. Small flake to front lip and another near this to the upper lip. Impact to front left upper body has a dark 95 mm hairline through it. A fair bit of discolouration scattered around, with a bit of wear here and there. Interesting example. Grade: 6 Estimate: $75 - 100
