PINT HAYSTACK MEASURE BY AUSTEN
THIS IS THE IRISH HAYSTACK FORM OF MEASURE IN THE PINT SIZE. IT IS MARKED BY AUSTEN & SONS ON 94 NORTH MAIN ST., CORK. THIS IS THEIR EARLIER MARK FROM THE 19TH CENTURY. THIS STYLE WAS SO POPULAR THAT IT HAS BEEN REPRODUCED IN THE 20TH CENTURY WITH ENOUGH DIFFERENCES TO DISTINGUISH THEM FROM THE 19TH CENTURY ONES.
