Up for grabs is a great-looking U-610A Ohio Brass (OB is embossed on one ear) in a nice mottled drippy grey glaze. I dug this example from a S.W. Ontario bottle dump about 10 years ago and have decided that it's time to find it a new, more appreciative home. The colour doesn't show well in the photos as I've managed to nicely overexpose them, but it is a drippy grey glaze typical of early Ohio Brass products and looks fantastic on a shelf.

The condition of the piece appears to be just about perfect, but we'll say VNM just to be safe. It has some light scuffing around the wire groove but nothing bad. The tie wire itself is still partly cloth covered, but due to decades of burial in a swamp the covering has partly crumbled away leaving exposed copper wire.

How about $30 USD plus shipping for this unique piece. I accept PayPal, or personal cheque from any member of ICON or any collector with whom I have dealt before. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or for more photos, and look through my other items or unsold sales stock to combine shipping on items.
