CD 151 HG Petticoat [070] in a darker cornflower. This old warrior shows use; 1" chip almost at left mold line; two 1/4" chips on upper lip over Petticoat; a shallow base flake that spans almost half the circumference of the base; and some roughness around the upper wire groove. In spite of this, it displays beautifully; the glass is nice and shiny, and the color glows in the light. It is full of character, with numerous bubbles & worm marks; a small rock on the left side mold line where the dome seam is; a small piece of furnace snow under the H on the front; and the dome and top has pitting as if there was sand in the mold when the glass was poured in. The damage sounds terrible, but the color really shines thru on display. Mint book is 300-500 depending on whether you call it regular or dark cornflower. I'm asking $100 plus actual shipping, which is what I gave several years ago. I'm also open to trades....I specialize in junk in glass, Brookfields, CD 252's, and threadless. Thanks for the look!
