Up for sale is a light aqua Brookfield CD 133 in the [100] EIN (I think), with (arc) W. BROOKFIELD / 45 CLIFF ST / N.Y." on the front crown, and "0 / (arc) PAT / JAN. 25 1870" on the rear crown. This one is a typical light aqua colour, but it has a little more character than most with two large, tadpole-like bubbles in the rear and left skirt. The largest bubble is the one closest to the front skirt at almost 2" in length including its "tail", and up to 5/8" thickness. The smaller bubble is closer to centre on the rear skirt and measures about 1 1/4" in length by 1/2" in width. There are also a number of other, smaller tadpole-shaped bubbles throughout the piece, including the front crown.

This piece is in great shape apart from a couple open bubbles, the largest of which is about 1/2" in length by 1/8" in width and is centred between the two large bubbles on the rear lower wire ridge. The other open bubble is about 1/8" wide and is on the rear base edge. There is also a bit of scuffing/wire rubbing in the wire groove, especially on the rear skirt.
