Wilcox Bros / Ginger / Beer / And at / Lilydale / Dandenong & Frankston. Impressed: The Bendigo Pottery / Epsom / Bendigo. (Victoria). Ginger Beer. Cork Stoppered. Champagne. Tan Top. Black Print. 10 oz. 205 mm. 1910s
Good. (6.3). Front left lip has a 9 x 8 mm wedge shaped chip. Further to the back is a long 20 x up to 12 mm chip down the top. Inside this and further around the back is a long chip on the top and inner lip of around 28 x 5 mm and then a few smaller nibbles and marks to the back right lip. Body of the bottle is pretty good with just some little marks and scuffs. The potter has done a rough job with the stamp and you can see a section of the upper right of the stamp including most of the "Bros" print is missing. Very rare Victorian ginger beer nonetheless and well worth fixing up a little. Estimate: $200-400
