For your consideration this 'eve is this pair of tough Canadian porcelain telegraph pieces... in the shape of CD 145s! Now how often do you see porcelain CD 145s? There are two different U-#s represented here. The shorter, stubbier fellow on the left is the U-1140 G.T.P. and is marked in green ink on the dome top in large, crude letters. This one seems, strangely enough, to have an 'H' incused into the dome top directly beside the T. The fellow on the right is the taller U-1141 G.T.P., and is marked in exactly the same way the C.P.R. U-1131s are marked - smallish, higher quality green ink-stamped letters quite conservative in their shape. Both are in pristine condition, as far as I can tell, as I can not see a single chip, crack, or ping anywhere on either one. They could use a cleaning, but I could do that for you before I ship them out, if you'd like. I'm asking $12.00 U.S. each plus shipping, or $20.00 U.S. plus shipping for the pair of them. These porcelain G.T.P.s are much, much harder to find than the common, C.P.R. ink-stamped pieces. I accept personal cheques from any member of ICON, or anyone I've dealt with before.
