E. A. Dobson / Ginger Beer / Mittagong. No impressed stamp. (New South Wales) Ginger Beer Cork Stoppered Dump. All Tan. Black Print. 10 oz 171 mm. 1910s
Good. Deeper 8 x 5 mm chip inside the back lip. Rest of the lip has smaller chips and nibbles. Impact at the front lip has an angled hairline of about 70 mm running down the shoulder from it. This mingles in with criss-crossed hairlines around the neck and shoulder. All are tight but discoloured. Some glaze flakes and wear to the shoulder. A couple of wear spots to the body as well. More very fine hairlines and crazing around the base edge. Rust under the top from the corking wire. More solid example than it sounds and quite a rare one. Grade: 6.8 Estimate: $200 - 250
