This is a great toll that I could never see upgrading, especially with this factory imperfection that McLaughlin certainly is not known for!

This is EIN [010] and has a 4 in rear wire groove and an elongated carbon bubble in skirt under N. The insulator has some green & amber swirls in the glass and several large bubbles and smaller seed bubbles to boot. The insulator has some great annealing lines as well and signs on the skirt the mold may have been dirty that was used to press this piece.

The only damage I can see is a small 1/4" long shallow base chip by the left mold line that removes 1/2 of one drip point and displays dead mint from the front, or slightly angled to see the carbon impurity front and center.

I am pricing this at $485 as I believe the color (and character) and character warrant it. That price includes Priority Shipping (and insurance) to your door in the US. PayPal friends/family is preferred.

Please ask if you need more photos as I have several going back to 2007 in various settings/light sources.
