Bollington Hop Beer Coy / G. Blyth / Geelong // This bottle / is the sole property of G. Blyth. Base: A. (Victoria) Aerated Water Codd Dobson or Four way type. Applied top. Aqua. 26 oz. 275 mm. 1900s
Very Good. Quite scuffy with lots of wear around the shoulder. Some small chips around the bottom of the applied top. Scratches and marks. Really crude bottle with great embossing. This is the first example we've had with the back embossing and A base mark (in this case the base mark will be from the Austral or Australian glass works in Brunswick, Victoria). Two previous sales of large size Blyth codds were M base mark with no rear embossing. This is a rare and unusual variety. Grade: 7.3 Estimate: $600 - 800
