Yoxall Bros / Moonee / Trade (arm holding dagger) Mark / Valley Co / Melbourne // ABW. No base mark. Aerated Water Codd Applied top. Four way pour Dobson style patent with four dimples. Aqua. 26 oz. 275 mm. 1900s
Good. Interestingly, the ABW would be Australian Bottle Works, which operated out of the same factory as the Moonee Valley Glass Works. This has been polished. Tiny discoloured impact mark on left side chamber expands out in an inwards fashion to a fine contact bruise over about 20 x 20 mm at its greatest dimensions on the inner chamber. For its entirety this is very difficult to see, but it is there. Still a bit hazy internally, possibly slightly etched. Series of pitted fisheyes in a small section near the front base. Some fine pits to be found, scratches and fisheyes scattered around. Couple of little impact flakes and the like. Embossing is quite nice. This is a very rare bottle. Grade: 6 Estimate: $$800.00 - $1,000.00
