T. Davies Sandhurst Soda

[kumtow]

Hi All,
Well, lets see if I can get this right. This is one of my favourite bottles. It is a T. Davies blob top soda fron Sandhurst (now Bendigo) in Victoria. This bottle was dug in Townsville, Queensland so it is a long way from home. I hope ya'll jealous.

Hey it worked!!!!!![][][][][]. Here is another couple. The aqua J T shepheard is extremely rare and the blue is one of the most sought after bottles in Australia, although not as rare as the aqua. Both bottles from my hometown in Geraldton Western Australia.

A Davies dumpy dug in Townsville hey, some people are just too tinny [] , the amount of digging that's gone on in Bendigo with only a few found and someone goes and get's one a few thousand kilometers away [:-] .
Very nice bottles the three of them (big understatement there for all of you who don't know these bottles [] ).

Hi Chris,
Not too many of them over here either. There are only six that I know of. 4 from Geradlton WA and 2 from Sydney. The Sydney ones are small and large from Newling and Walker Parramatta. The blue Shepheards is the only one with an embossed trademark. I have the 4 from Geraldton but the Chapman &Joses is repaired. I'll get the others eventually.[]
I like the colours of your Baltimore torps, don't get those colours here. Here is a piccie of the Geraldton torps.[]. Please excuse my gloating, but I can't help it.
Left is Shepheards, left centre Joses Mineral water, right centre Joses Soda water (very very rare) far right Chapman & Jose (very very rare)

Now that's just showing off [:-] [] , stunning line up of torps there, you have made at least one collector jealous.
Do you have any blue Codd's ?

Hi Carmo,,
A Yoxall?! Strewth mate, if you can get one of those you better not buy any lotto tickets for a while because you will have used up all you luck. I know of two that are not for sale/swap or anyting else for that matter. I have been trying for some time to get one myself. Probably coudn't afford it anyway considering the price I paid for a Waltho GB. Good luck.

Hi Again Mike (Carmo),,
If you can find me a Chapman & Jose in good condition, I'll try and find you a Yoxall[]
