N/A. (N/A). 1. & 2. Both are pretty much Mint. One has a making split to inner base edge corner. Just a little dust. Established in 1931, Jessie McPherson Private Hospital originated as the private wing of Melbourne's pioneering Queen Victoria Hospital. Originally built to help fund the "Queen Vic" through patient fees, it later relocated to Clayton in 1987 to co-locate with Monash Medical Centre, where it operates today. 3. Some dust and grime. 40 mm discoloured hairline to opposite side of handle. Nice looking item from the Dandenongs in Victoria. 4. Good. 80 mm hairline to right, upper part is discoloured, lower part is hard to see. Another example to the left is pretty much the same. 3 x 3 mm glaze flake to outer front lip rim. Looking down from the top, the rim is a bit wonky, this is as made, just made quite crudely! I suggested tumbler, but now notice the inner rim is unglazed, so it is likely this actually had a lid at some stage? Some fine scratches and surface wear. Estimate: $20-40
