Item: 64  Description: CD 257 HEMIN-CRAY (080 – Sort Of) Aqua with Amber Swirls. This is a really fun insulator. First, and most obvious, are the amber swirls. Particularly in the ears. Just where you want them. Second… There is something wrong with the “G” in HEMINGRAY. It looks more like a “C”. See View 3. Third…. In View 4 the embossing miscue looks like a “C” was engraved over a “G”. Fourth… as View 5 and View 6 show, there’s an error with the first patent date. It should read: “JUNE 17 1890”. But, instead, it reads “1893”. Finally, there’s a milky streak in the skirt as a flashlight illuminates in View 7Grade B: Chip on reverse wire shoulder as shown in View 2. In View 7 you can see a small bruise to the left of the milky “V”. Two drip points are flaked; one is blunted; and one has a bubble at its tip.
