Here is a CD 152 [080] (F-Skirt) BROOKFIELD/4 {MLOB} RB in dark aqua with a huge bubble in the right front skirt. There are also some steam squiggles behind the embossing that show when underlit. There is a circumferential crack that starts at the base in front of the left mold line and runs around nearly the entire insulator, ending in the rear skirt. The two ends do not connect, and the crack does not extend into the inner skirt. It doesn't show too bad when displayed with the bubble front and center. There are also two open bubbles on a diagonal from the large one, including one to the right at the base and a smaller one above the upper wire ridge to the left. Both can be seen in the picture if you look closely. There are also some enclosed bubbles in the rear dome, and a handful of small bits of firebrick floating around to add even more character. Considering the crack, I think $10 plus shipping is fair for this standout. There'll be no sale on this one, so if you like big bubbles, grab it now! Thanks for looking.
