Very Good. (7.2). 15 x 2 mm very shallow flake to upper right side of pouring spout. Little blow out to front upper neck. Crack right through handle where it meets the neck just below the lip. Scratch looking mark to front where the tan meets the white, this is more likely a glaze miss, another to left shoulder is definitely a glaze miss. This has been painted in silver at some stage, most has been removed but there are still plenty of little silver paint spots to be found. We haven't sold this version before with the Roderick Dhu badges to each side and medals to the rear. (This is the exact same jug as we sold back in Auction 44, Lot 968 so still the only one of this version we have sold!) Estimate: $100-150
