One of a series of blue Melbourne pot lids featuring a Coat of Arms, this version is similar to the Blackett’s of Williamstown with the English Coat of Arms. This is quite a rare lid in this great condition, and would add well to any pot lid collection.
Estimate: $2000 - 2500.

One of Australia’s rarest cordials, this is a Melbourne bottle that is amongst the pinnacle of cordial bottles. There are only a handful of these known to collectors, this is a choice piece which would top off any cordial collection or even any general collection.
Estimate: $5000 - 6500.
161. Henry Wilding, Cross with Stars trade mark,Queenscliff,twotonegingerbeer.Afatshapebottle,thisonestandsat222mmtall.

The back base has ashallow12x4mmflake, there iscrazing in thetanglazeatthetopandsomeminordiscolouration.Wehavegiventhisanumericalgradingof8.9.
This is an exceptionally rare ginger beer. There are two variations, the J.W. Wilding ginger beer is rare, this Henry Wilding version is considerably rarer again, these are just impossible to obtain. Of the few that we have seen, they have all had lip damage which has been repaired, this is quite possibly the best example known. This is a great opportunity to buy one of the rarest Victorian ginger beers available.

Apart from a couple of examples, nearly all Australian milk bottles in the Quart size are considered rare. This is no exception, in fact this could be amongst the rarest of the lot, we are not aware of any others in collections at this stage.
Estimate: $750 - 1000.

Wehave given this a numericalgradingof8.1.
This bottle was found many years ago wedged into a stone farm fence, where it had been for around 50 years, hence the natural deep amethyst colour! This bottle is exceptionally rare in this colour, it may even be the darkest example.
Estimate: $1000 - 1250.
