Another unusual style to occasionally turn up in this area. Any American CD 134s do not frequently turn up on the lines near where I hunt, and yet I have found a couple of this embossing style. I believe the letters' bold, chisled appearance is what is referred to as "prismic". Correct me if I'm wrong. The colour of this piece is a light Hemingray blue, and there are a number of NICE bubbles throughout - one directly below the embossing, and another behind the upper wire ridge on the left side of the front. The way the light refracts through the wire ridge makes the bubble look larger than it is, but it's actual dimensions are still quite impressive at 1" by 3/8". There is also a bit of amber and carbon swirling in the front skirt. The embossing style is [030] with the patent date on the rear. The condition is the best I've seen in the couple of these that have turned up around here. There is a 1/4" flake off the top of the wire ridge on the left side of the front, and another 1/8" ping on the rear wire ridge. Lastly there is a 3/4" fan crack sprouting from a chipped drip in the rear skirt (visible in the photo on the right). I'm asking $10 U.S. plus shipping for this exotic (to Canada) Hemingray blue beauty! I accept personal cheques from any member of ICON, or anyone I've dealt with before. All the best!
