M. Wilks / Hobart Town. Potters Stamp: Stephen Green / Imperial / Potteries / Lambeth. (Tasmania) Ginger Beer Cork Stoppered Dump. All White. Impressed. 10 oz. 160 mm. 1850s
Fair. Repaired. There is a repair on the back shoulder and looking inside it appears that there was a hole here that has been filled. Overpainting to the outside goes to a larger extent. Also repairs around virtually all the base. Again looking inside shows some possible fine cracks and a small gap but no fill there so probably just chips around the base that have been filled. The repairs are reasonable making this a worthy example of a desirable ginger beer. Grade: 5.8 Estimate: $200 - 300
