The color on this B.G.M. is super. A real deep purple color and an insulator that is is pretty fine condition. There is a light flash over in the area of the embossed B. It leaves a slight dull streak abour 1/2" wide from the wire groove to the base of the skirt. The only other thing is some very slight nibbles on the upper ridge of the wire groove, that is about 1/2" long. This is an insulator that`s not offered all that often and I`m pricing it very reasonably at $225 delivered. KL467
