Description

#2711       CD 135      CHI. INS. CO.     PAT. OCT. 16. 1883.      Blue.  

Well defined embossing is positioned around the upper shoulder.  Attractive "Brook's blue" coloration.

A highly unusual design, likely produced at a glassworks in Ellenville, New York.  Although examples have been found in New York, Ohio, Illinois, Nebraska and perhaps other states, the majority of those now in collections were recovered many years ago in Mexico.

Nicer than the majority of examples, with a very shallow flake the diameter of a pencil eraser.  Remainder is exceptional!
