Sold for A$740

Trade (Kangaroo with Joey) Mark. Smooth base. (New South Wales) Household Jar Lightning or Bail type Fruit Jar. Ground Lip. Aqua. About One Quart. 168 mm without lid. 1890s

Very Good. Shallow chip down inside the front lip of about 20 x 5 mm, one little part of about 10 x 2 mm is the noticeable bit below the line of the lip. Around on the right lip is some chipping down about half to one mm but mostly the rest of the lip has the usual flakes and chips associated with ground lips. Some scratches and wear. Dust and grime. (The lid is quite grimy). Pretty nice clean example, won't take much of a clean to be even better. Scarce and iconic jar, probably see less of these Quart size. Grade: 7.9 Estimate: $700 - 1000
