A friend of mine brought a number of these MIN COM CUBA CD 154s back from several trips to Cuba over the last decade or so. Many reading this will probably recall seeing some on here previously. I am helping him sell them, so here's an oddball to consider adding to your lineup of these scarce CD 154s. This example is the [010] EIN with simple "MIN COM CUBA" embossing on the front skirt. It appears to be an unusual colour - what I would call "light olive green". I have sold some "gingerale" examples in the past but this one is different, in my opinion. Its colour has more pronounced olive green tones, though there is still some "straw" left in it. I guess it's up to you whether it's "olive green" or "more green-tinted gingerale". I'm happy to provide more photos if anyone needs them.

This example is in good shape, but does have 3 partly flaked drips in the front, and one more in the back. A couple of these just have their very tips roughed up, but 95% of the drip remains. Otherwise it appears to be in great shape.

I'm now asking $325 USD INCLUDING shipping for this one. I'm always happy to trade for early Canadian glass or Canadian-made porcelain insulators. I have a long-standing want list of Canadian-made porcelain posted, [id=505519866; please click here to see it]. 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.
