In my perpetually never ending mission to declutter - and make room for more insulators - I am offering this group of porcelain cabletops including many scarcely seen pieces. Lots going on in this group with some wild trimmer variants, so gave my best educated guess on some identifications.

View original to see more detail on this and please inquire if you need any more photos.

Top Row:

U-610A Likely NN OB. VNM (3 small glaze flakes - 2 on ears and 1 on skirt). Amazing tool marks nearly all the way around the skirt.

U-610A Marked mottled blue/gray OB - tough color. Large glazed over chip on inner skirt but VNM. Recovered in Canada.

U-611B NN Akron, nice silvery light speckled fawn glaze. Dry Process, has 4 teats but is skirt rest. 2 glaze rubs on skirt and one small 1/4" chip on reverse of one ear.

U-608 Teat rest reddish brown (more red) clearly marked OB. Nice character piece with mottling. A few fleabites from mint.

Middle:

U-608 massively crude OB. Decent marking and a weird warty pumpkin brown shade. The bottom of the ears are beat up, but most of the nibbling is glazed over. One shallow thumb-nail sized chip on the skirt and 3 other pencil eraser sized skirt chips.

U-600 heavy piece, unmarked. VNM, nice mottled brown/mahogany shades.

U-599B - NN Some roughness on crown rest, open glaze bubble on skirt otherwise VNM. Nice coloration.

U-558 - NN and suspect definitely Pittsburg with the glaze but this one is fairly well formed and put together. Absolutely beautiful mottling.

Bottom:

U-559 NN New Lexington in the typical, but always attactive, silvery brown irridescent glaze. VNM. Some nice drippy spots on the bottom of the skirt.

U-560 No name but certainly doesn't look like a Pittsburg. Relatively uniform glazing, VNM.

U-560 NN. Looks more like a Pittsburg! Drippy mottled glaze and a crooked crown. Unfortunately this one has several fractures around the skirt but is intact.

I'd like to sell all 11 pieces for one money. I'm asking $140 plus shipping to the US. PayPal friends preferred.
