Item: 180  Description: CD 133.1 PAT. APP. FOR. (020) Brooke’s Blue. The dome is slightly tweaked to one side. Note in View 1 how the upper wire ridge is not circular. That’s the result of a lehr kiss. You can see the scars from the kiss in View 1 where the upper wire ridge dips; and also at the far right just below the wire groove. Additional character includes lots of fizzy bubbles and numerous white potstones in dome and body of the insulator.  Grade B: View 1 shows a flake below the wire ridge just above the “PP.” There’s also a small, exposed potstone on the upper wire ridge on the reverse.
