F. Humphris // Jamestown. Base: OO. (South Australia) (Late Kingsley Durdin Collection).. Aerated Water. Maugham. Maugham. Applied top. Aqua. 10 oz. 275 mm. 1890s
Very Good. (7.2). Little nibbled flake to upper left lip, about a 15 x 4 mm fine double bruise to inner lip from this. Right lip has a small mark that I thought was a flake but is in fact a fold from making. Lightly hazy. Some fine wear around the shoulder. Very strong embossing, there are a few nibbled flakes and some high point wear, but several letters remain unmarked. Can see where the mould was altered to make this read Humphris, some actually say Humphries. Some light scratches and scuffs. This is from the late Kingsley Durdin collection. Estimate: $30-40
