Featured is a CD 126 W. Brookfield blob top with the 55 Fulton St. address and 3 dates on the back. Feb 22nd, 1870, Jan 25th 1870 Jan 14th 1879. Has an odd Large 1 / small 0 dome number combination on the dome. Mint would be a $250.00 color. Has an arc crack on the rear skirt that nearly goes mold line to mold line. There are a few pings on the top of the dome too. The good news is that the arc crack is stable and has never changed or gotten any worse. Additionally, it displays great and is invisible from the front. Better still is that instead of being a $200.00+ insulator, I am offering it at $55.55 postpaid. A great way to add some good early Brookfield color to your collection reasonably priced. Actual Quote from buyer: "The insulator arrived in today's mail. Once again, I am extremely impressed with you: your description of damage was right on (and once again, you omitted some very attractive character features, like potstones, bubbles, and milky wisps); packing was extraordinarily safe (I already knew about the big crack in the rear skirt ;-D); and I'm doing back flips over here about this color/price combination!!! I already have a spot picked out in my front bay window for this jewel. It'll be a LONG time before it's replaced, I can assure you. As always, it is my very great pleasure to do business with you, and I look forward to seeing more of your sale items posted on the insulator For Sale pages. Happy Collecting!! "
