All embossing is looks script. The K above the HGCO embossing is what appears odd. Like the diagonal lines going both up and down were cut short. Think you can make that out if you look close enough at this pic. This insulator is loaded with fizz, a whisp of milk and many nice size bubbles. The biggest bubble is bellow the last T of Petticoat. It is 1/2" in diameter. Staight up at top of the skirt centerd on the same embossing is a larger oblong bubble. Unfortunately to the right of the 1/2" bubble below the T there is a just smaller round flake that looks like an inclusion to close at the base popped the glass of off. I thought that it was another bubble when I first saw it until I ran my finger over and felt the cavety. They is no damage at all on the base so thus my theory. I have one more theory to mention. There are two half to one inch long very shallow flakes at the base of the dome. On is just in front of the right side mold line. The other is about two inches away about centered on the rear side of insulator. Between those flaked there are a number of small nibbles so I assume all was caused by stress due to attached wires when in use.

With all the above mentioned the insulator actually displays pretty well and some of the before described defects add to the charm of this old piece of glass with fizz.

My asking price is $21.60 shipped to your door. If not for the imperfections that figure would be about book value before fizz and shipping was added.

I accept Pay Pal non-fee payments (friends/family) as well as personal and money orders if you don't have an account.
