Union Cordial Works / Trade Mark / Regd / (Handshake) / D. Egan / Propr / Bendigo. No base mark. (Victoria). Aerated Water. Codd. Dobson or Four way type. Aqua. 26 oz. N/A. 1890s
Poor. (0). As can be seen, this is broken above the dimples at the front, at the rear it is broken down to the neck groove. Cracked around most of the circumference just below neck groove. Some inner water stain which will soak out. We sold the one and only good example of this bottle in Auction 42, this example was actually found beside that example decades ago, and remain the only two pieces known - other 26 ounce Union codds are a different variety. This would have been made at one of the lesser Melbourne glassworks, quite a crudely made item. Estimate: $100-150
