Blue aqua CD 735 Mulford & Biddle hat with U.P.R.R. on the reverse side. Comes with what was claimed to be the original tie wire.

This specimen is about 85% complete. There is a large piece of the skirt (2.5x1.25") that was reglued, starting from R in Mulford and continues to the back side. There are also a couple smaller pieces on the rear side that have been reglued. There is a large 1.75x0.75" area of chips that remove the U.P. embossing as well as a fracture from the wire groove into the dome. Displays pretty well from the Mulford side despite being heavily damaged, and is a great piece of Transcontinental RR history. Asking $80 plus shipping. Lots of additional pictures available, do not hesitate to ask.
