CD 156.1 Base embossed: POSTAL TELEGRAPH CO PAT SEP 13 (BACKWARDS 3) 1881 (manufacture open bubbles obliterated). The color is a light aqua . There is a nice dark polywog in the dome. There is some minor flaking on the under side of the upper wire ridge. The other damage is to the base and inner skirt as seen in pics. I am asking $25.00 and $7.00 USPS shipping to U.S.A. address only. PayPal (friends/family option) please. Thanks for looking. Please see 3 other pics.
