T. Davies & Co. / Sandhurst // Trade / (Knight on Horseback) / Mark. (Victoria) (James A. Lerk Collection) Aerated Water Torpedo Applied top. Aqua. 13 oz. 230 mm. 1880s
Very Good. Fisheye to outer lip edge. Some fine inner dirt that should wash out, although there is a little haze too. Small nibbled surface impact just below the embossing. A few fisheyes and little impact marks. Scratches throughout, these are a bit scuffed in places. Good embossing has only minor marks. A solid example of a scarce torpedo. This is from the James A. Lerk collection. Grade: 7.3 Estimate: $300 - 400
