Two very interesting CD 143 Montreals for sale.

The insulator on the left is a blue aqua, and loaded with character. The dome has thick ropes of milk wrapped around it, and there is a large open bubble on the rear. The lower part of the insulator does have some condition issues: a couple of small base flakes, an 8mm x 8mm flat skirt flake front, and a few annealing cracks in the front skirt. There is also a little bit of soot left here and there. Still a beautiful and unique piece despite the condition. Priced at $75 shipped to Canada or continental USA.

The insulator on the right is green aqua, and deformed. It leans to one side, and has a very crooked pin hole. there are also a few nice large bubble scattered about, and a bubble halo at the top of the pin hole. Condition is very good with a couple of small base flakes. Priced at $55 shipped to Canada or continental USA.

More photos are available upon request. If you would like to buy like both, a discount can be had.
