I thought I might share this lid with you guys in the US. This is one of the best in Australia, has everything going for it including colour and a great trade mark, as well as being super rare.
This is the star lot in our online auction which is running at the moment on www.abcrauctions.com There are also several other lids including a Jules Hauel bears grease from Philadelphia, a couple of prattware bears greases and other general lids from around the world.

Pretty darn cool. I love the text as well. Nice to see that the knight-type has not only vanquished his enemy, but he is standing on his head.

If you look really closely, you can see some spots of red between the gladiators legs on the back of the slain enemy, not sure if this was an error or purposefully put there as the blood of the enemy?

Great lid. There are 2 others with perhaps the green with the 9 oclock sword the hardest. These have been found in New Zealand and South Africa in addition to Australia.

No, we are not auctioning this lid, just thought I would share it with the forum.

Not quite. Virginia would have a very collectable seal if it did!
