Trade (Kangaroo with Joey) Mark. Smooth base.. Household. Jar. Lightning or swing stopper style closure. Ground lip. Aqua. Half Gallon. 260 mm with lid and bail in place. 1890s-1900s
Excellent. (8.4). The inner ground lip has the typical thin chips and nibbles that these types of jars have. Down about 3 mm in a couple of areas but all thin and to the inner lip. A rusty scuff that just goes into the surface of the glass a little at the front left shoulder. Only light wear otherwise. Really strong embossing. Wire around the neck has been replaced. Lid is a nice one with a bit of wear on top from the wire. Great example of this iconic Australian fruit jar. Estimate: $750-1500
