I always use the cornflower blue Dominion 42 as a measure of color. This CD 145 unembossed Grand Canyon style insulator is shades lighter. However it is a beautiful shade of blue and in just super condition. In the photo you will see an open bubble along the base toward the left side. Then a long bubble in the center and toward the right side another bubble that opens on the inside surface of the skirt. The tiny white spot on the skirt is not damage. It appears to be a manufacturing flaw. The only damage I see is a small shallow flake on the upper ridge of the wire groove, and that you only notice by running your finger over it. I`m pricing this one at $225 postpaid to your door in the U.S. or Canada
