This is a (F-Skirt) HEMINGRAY (R-Skirt) PATENT/MAY 2 1893

but in the old prism style with the "loopy 2". These are the oldest Hemi CD 121's made with drip points, before the common stamped embossing ones were made. Much harder to come by. There is a strange section of several vertical grooves in the inside only of the skirt at the embossing on the rear skirt. No glass is missing and this is molding quick I think. It has a smaller impact on the insulator than the photo shows, and the embossing is stronger than the photo shows. Just the first letter or two of each line is a little faint, but still readable.

This one is your basic Aqua but with a nice big bubble on the back as shown.

Condition: A few minor chipped drips and several pings.

$5 plus actual USPS shipping. Please reply with your shipping address in your first email. Thanks!
