Here is a classic one, considered by some to be one of the earliest threaded pieces. 127 WU Pattern EIN [010] in blue aqua. Shop # 3 on the dome.

A nice 127 with three bb dings, extremely shallow annealing line and an 1/8" fisheye all on the back. Some other tiny fleabites. Overall great condition for one of these. The amber swirls and slight lean help make up for the minor damage, and look at that dome glass. Nice bold LACS PAT JULY 25TH 1865 embossing. Something for everyone.

Harder to find color in blue-aqua. Asking $600 shipped to your door for this classic piece of telegraph history. More pictures available on request. Send it back to me for a full refund if you aren't happy.

This one hurts....
