Here`s one of those 252 cables that you don`t see up for sale all that often. Embossed on one side of the skirt E. S. S. Co. and No 401 on the reverse side. All the damage is visable in the photo. There is a 1/8" dia chip above the Co. embossing. Up on the right ear there is a 1/4" dia chip and on the under side of that same ear there is chip, although not really deep, it is 3/4" long. The No 401 side is mint. My price is as nice as the 401 side; $50 delivered anywhere in the U.S.
