This pair of Hemingray CD 106s has something going for it that most pieces of this variety do not... junk-in-glass! Hemingray insulators are renowned for being quite sterile in their production. While I would consider Dominion and Diamond-Flint products to be more sterile still, I admit to not having seen too much inside this Hemingray pieces! The example on the left has was appears to be a small, black fleck of metal in the rear skirt, just to the right of the patent date. The example on the right, in a nice blue aqua colouration, has a long polywog in the glass, as shown. Both examples are the [330] embossing index.

The piece on the left has an impact on the rear skirt, just to the right of the metal fleck. It has caused a bit of a crack running into the skirt that measures approx. 5/8" by 1/2". Short of that, the condition of this one looks great. The example on the right has just one chipped drip in the rear, and some scratching on the embossing in the rear (the first "TE" in "PATENTED", and "Y" in "MAY").

I am asking $7.00 U.S. plus shipping for the pair of them. I accept PayPal, and personal cheques or money orders from any member of ICON, or anyone I've dealt with before. Please feel free to email me for more photos, or with any questions. I encourage you to look through my "For Sale (Not Sold)" stock, and combine items to save on shipping. All the best!
