1. Thomas Stokes / Trade (Kangaroo) Mark / Bunbury. No potters stamp. 2. J. Dempsey / Kalgoorlie. No potters stamp. 3. Acme Co / Coolgardie. WA. (Western Australia) (Votava Collection). Ginger Beer. Impressed. Dump. Various Glazes. Impressed. 10 oz. 173, 171 & 164 mm. 1890s - 1900s

N/A. (N/A). 1. Good. 19 x 17 mm filled mark at the front right shoulder. But looking at this and the mark on the lip it would appear to be a kiln kiss that has been filled? Some indents around the lower part from making. Good stamp as these usually have. Nice looking bottle. 2. Good. May be better but is heavily crazed with a couple of heavier lines around the middle more like hairlines. What makes these look perhaps worse than they are is that all these lines have rust stain through them. No major damage. 3. Good. Probably not too bad but heavy rust stain throughout. There are some nibbles on the lip. A few scratches and scuffs around. These are quite an interesting and crude bottle. (Votava Collection). Estimate: $200-300
