A few other goodies... I had quite a haul this weekend! The big base skirt with the broken head is for a M-2796 gutter ... A new head can be grafted on with a diamond saw cut if it is needed so it will go into the bone pile at Paul Greaves house for some future repair when we find a top for a gutter with no base.

The small base is for a M-2332 or M-2335a little gutter. It has a 1" pin hole which is unusual for these small bases.

The gray thing (not a Fred Locke) is an inner skirt for a large Duncan patent suspension. Needless to say, a complete gray duncan patent suspension would be the ultimate "I'm in heaven" suspension insulator if someone found one! [id=99135113] to see a complete brown Duncan suspension.

The other thing is a U-957 that is marked with the 7-1 marking . Marked U-957's are very rare with only three others reported . This one is a collection keeper for me!!! It's top skirt is fairly good but the base is badly damaged and has allot of damage and I may do a "cut and paste" repair with another base skirt from an identical U-957 that has the same glaze color.
