Lot 174: CD 257 PATENT JUNE 17, 1890  Color: Icy Aqua w/ Ear Bubbles  Description: Excellent condition with perfect, oversized drip points and no wear in the saddle. Several large, elongated bubbles can be seen in the right ear, and some smaller ones in the left ear. There is even a little amber swirl over the top of the pinhole. An early "mouse" style made by Hemingray but not embossed with their name. The clarity of the glass especially highlights the nice bubbles in the ears! Between the condition and the character, this insulator is certainly worth a premium!
