Just had a look and you are right it is 3cm short than the standard small size quoted on the IOW collectors guide site.

Thanks Nemmie, that is shorter than most. Kerry made short bottles too, mould blown and round like the later bottles made at Mdina.

Pretty sure this is IOW.

It is wonky and has a snapped off pontil but then I don't have any others to compare it to. You would know more than I.
