2nd of two similar colored Evo1 embossing pieces pulled off the same single 10-pin arm by Widdo Bwudder in the early 80's along Highway 25, just south of Kettle Falls, Washington. This one is from the peculiarly artful mold where the bottom edge of "HEMINGRAY" is arc'd upward in the center. A crystal clear base color is swirled with lavender in the dome and has some nice yellow dancing around in the mid-body. Widdo went up the pole for the obvious purple C.G.I.Co. 102, thinking the two "clear" 106's were common moderns. He got a pleasant surprise when he got up to the crossarm.
