CD 113 nn (braille), milky jade purple, #7

View:  Main  View 2
ITEM No.:CD No.: 113  EMBOSSING: [random raised dots on skirt]  COLOR: Milky jade purple.  CONDITION: Open burst bubble at base with some bruising around it and an open bubble on the lower wire ridge of the upper wire groove (see View 2).  SUMMARY: Often referred to as the Canadian Braille keg. A small number of these purple kegs are known to contain milky swirls. This one is more of a solid jade purple, having very little in the way of defined milk swirls. Some degree of damage is expected on these fragile kegs, so don't let that be a deterrent. A good portion of the condition description is due to factory flaws. As you can see, it displays quite nicely from one side. Previously from the Milholland collection.
