H. Tetlow / Trade (Kangaroo) Mark / Launceston. Potters stamp: Pinnacle / Brand. (Tasmania) Ginger Beer Cork Stoppered Two tone, tan top, off white body. Black print. 10 oz. 171 mm. 1900s
Very Good. Perfect lip. Rear outer lip has a couple of making lumps. Perfect shoulder, white mark at front shoulder edge is simply different colour glaze and not a flake in any way. 22 mm nibbled section to front base edge which is thin. These are almost certainly from making. The whole base edge has small dints and little potters pulls and flakes, most are glazed over, next to lumps and so forth, this is likely all from making. Some light rusty looking patches to the left body. White spotty looking discolouration throughout which is likely from making as well. A few minor glaze misses. Some fine scratches and minor marks. We have never sold a Tetlow ginger beer before, these are somewhat rarer than the Cowap variations, and with the huge kangaroo and great condition, this is not one to be missed! Grade: 7.8 Estimate: $1500 - 1750
