Item: 47  Description: CD 134 Patent - 1871 (040) Bright Lime Green. An argument could be made to call the  color: Depression Glass Green. View 3 compares the color of this insulator with a Depression Green bowl my mother acquired during the Great Depression. You can see that the colors are very close. View 4 shows some amber swirls in the dome, where the color resembles Citrine. By any color definition, this is a GREAT color for an 1871 dated Hemingray.  Grade C: Three small flakes underneath the upper wire ridge on the 1893 dated side. There's a skirt bruise above six drip points on the 1871 dated side. A small base chip damages two drip points, as shown at the 10:00 o'clock position in View 5. About 16 drip points are partially flaked or flaked. View 5 shows the base.
