Morton, Queanbeyan. Base: AGM. (New South Wales). Aerated Water Crown Seal Champagne shape. Spun finished top. Aqua. 10 oz. 226 mm. 1930s
Very Good. This is different to the example we sold in auction 17, this is a very light grey colour with possibly some very light amethyst? This has embossing to the rear which the other didn't, and the last one had an S base mark as opposed to the AGM on this. This has a tiny inner lip flake that has a fine and small shallow bruise from it. Shallow 6 x 5 mm bruise near rear base edge, there is a 9 x 6 mm bruise next to this. Under the right base heel is a 8 x 6 mm shallow bruise. Very small surface bruise under front base heel. Some very light inner haze in a couple of places. Some light scuffs, there are some scratches to be found. Some making folds to be found add to the crudity of this piece. Nice, crisp embossing, the trade mark is a little lighter at the top of it, but still has some detail. A decent example of a rare bottle. Grade: 7 Estimate: $500 - 700
