Ye Old English / (Shield / E. Rowlands / Mineral Water / Manufacturer / Ballarat, / Melbourne / and / Sydney) / Brewed / Ginger Beer // (Shield / (Miner & Farmer) / Coat of Arms / Trade Mark). No potters stamp. (Victoria & New South Wales). Ginger Beer. Cork Stoppered. Dump. All Tan. Black Print. 10 oz. 170 mm. 1890s
Very Good. (7.5). Impact mark to the mid left side when looking at the trade mark. From this mark runs a vertical hairline either side of about 70 mm in total. There are a couple of horizontal to angled glaze hairlines/crazing either side as well. An even finer hairline vertically through the middle of the print on the writing side, hard to see but I would say again about 70 mm. Some scuffs and scratches around. Lip and base edge in surprisingly good shape. Only the second of these we have had without Newcastle in the stamp. Estimate: $200-400
