I picked this piece up in an antique shop in my earliest collecting days and never brought it back out to look at it much. Hopefully all you CREBheads can give me some guidance :-) This piece bears the [100] embossing, but all the writing appears to be in "small caps" (for all the fellow computer nerds out there). All of the text is right around 1/8" tall and very, very faded, but legible; the R-Crown number is 1, and the glass contains all the junk that Brookfield is legendary for. There's also a nice amber stringer that spirals up the pinhole. I would greatly appreciate any advice as to color on this piece; I don't think it's any variation of aqua even out of the lightbox, but maybe I'm going color-blind in the greenish spectrum. Anywho, thanks for viewing! |
