I've gotten lucky in the last couple of weeks at a few local flea markets and juncque shoppes. Here are three of the best ones:

On the left is a fractured, almost crackled, Light Aqua CD 728 No Embossing. This piece is not repaired but remains intact with virtually no glass missing. I'm guessing it was struck by lightning.

On the right is a Blue CD 152 EIN [010] (Dome) 0 (F‑Skirt) BROOKFIELD SB with major olive slashes, light amber swirls, and cool bubbles and only a couple of fleabites for damage.

Saving the best for last, in the middle is a nearly mint Dark Yellow Green CD 297 EIN [090] (F‑Skirt) ['FRED M.' blotted out] LOCKE VICTOR N.Y./[Blotted out embossing] (R‑Skirt) No 16/[Blotted out embossing] {MLOB} RB. The outside umbrella is tipped so that the rear skirt (shown here on top) sits higher than the front, which tips more forward.

One of the juncque shoppes had a sign out front that read:

IT'S NOT HOARDING IF YOUR STUFF IS COOL!

Enjoy!!
