This bottle is the property of O. T. Ltd Melbourne & Sydney / Ginger / Beer. (Victoria & New South Wales) Ginger Beer Crown Seal Tall champagne shape. Chocolate top. Black Print. 10 oz. 223 mm. 1910s-1920s
Excellent. Under the rim of the crown seal is a very neat unglazed line about 0.5 mm wide, similar to the one sold in auction 34 but not as wide. This has been deliberately done by the potter and is completely original. A really interesting facet of this bottle. Some spots of discoloured glaze wear. A little fine crazing. Some minor scratches and marks. A couple of glaze misses to the lip and some pinprick dips to the neck glaze from making. A rare bottle and this one is in really good condition all round. Grade: 8.5 Estimate: $500 - 750
