There is more to write home then would meet the eye here. See them often but never purchased a Canada Dry soda bottle before. Don't usually buy other carnival glass items normally but couldn't pass up the green three footed Northwood bowl. Had one like it before and it sold on eBay. So it's likely what is going to happen to this piece unless I trade.for insulators like I've also done in the past. And speaking of insulators not much out there today at the flea markets and antique shops I visited today. If you assume I collect porcellian insulators now you would be right. I do have a white beehive packed away someplace but I'm not sure if it is the same one. I also have a haystack stored away. However I think it is fully glazed unlike the one in my pic. And yet another first for me today would be the yellow NN cable top. Of course I couldn't have purchased them in the past being they weren't out there for me to find. Had run out of wooden side pins to hang some new CD numbers on my outside display. Was very happy to find five today. Four of which I din't believe were ever used even if they are a bit dirty. For awhile today I was thinking the insulator on one of the five pins was going to be the only glass I would be returning home with. It came with the pin otherwise It would have been left with its seller. But regardless of that I did end up finding the CD 147 spiral groove in an antique store I visit a couple times a year. It also would have stayed on the shelf where I found it if it didn't have a hairlip. Other then that it looks pretty plane under the soot. Will see for sure when it is done bathing. Thanks for looking. Hope my story hasn't bored you to much!! The Creb Crow PS: it was a real tough decision passing up a Beehive Creb beehive off of the same seller I pucked up the 147 from. It was a letter B on rear crown with a surface flake that removed part of the B. |
