Crown-stamped and inspector-numbered (1057 over 66), it’s a certified working pub measure with the honest wear of real service.  Solid in the hand, its clean, purposeful design would look right at home on a gentleman’s bar cart, drinks tray, or shelf of well-chosen curiosities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn Imperial terms, a gill was one-quarter of a pint, and fractions of it were used to accurately pour whisk(e)y and spirits for centuries. Most surviving examples are the smaller 1\/6 gill pub standard, making this larger version (about 1-2\/3 fluid ounces) both more substantial and far more distinctive. A certified measure like this—complete with its crown verification mark—was an everyday working tool, designed for precision and built to last.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBonzer began producing barware in the 1930s and quickly became a favorite of bartenders who valued durability over flash. Their pre-metric metal measures, especially the crown-stamped versions, have earned a quiet following among collectors for their heft, utility, and unmistakably British character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDimensions: 2-1\/2” x 1-5\/8” (top) x 1-1\/16” (base)\u003cbr\u003eWeight: 2.6 oz.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition notes: Very good vintage pub-used condition with light surface marks from age and handling. Exterior surface shows one small nick (see photos) and interior base surface displays expected wear consistent with use.  Nickel-plated finish remains even and reflective overall, with no dents, distortions, or losses to the rolled rim or body profile. Stamping is crisp and fully legible, including “1\/3 GILL,” the Bonzer maker’s mark, and the official crown verification mark with inspector numbers “1057” over “66.” Measure retains its original weight, shape, and balance with no structural issues or repairs.
