G. P. Milsom / Trade / (Elephant) / Mark / Launceston / British Syphon Co London // This syphon is the / property of G. P. Milson / & must be returned. No base mark. Spout marked: G. P. Milsom. (Tasmania) Aerated Water Soda Syphon Applied top. Round. Clear. 30 oz. 297 mm with spout. 1900s
Very Good. Spout does not come off easily, I presume the lip is fine. Some fine inner spotty residue staining. Nibbled flakes and chips around the base edge, only one shallow example to the front, some larger examples to the rear but not overly deep examples. Little surface flake to bottom of the badge at the front. Couple of little surface nicks. A few fisheyes. Some fine scuffs and scratches. Good print. This is different to the example sold in Auction 34 which was a French made syphon with no rear writing. Grade: 7 Estimate: $50 - 75
