I came across a stash of several LRI's in a shop in "as found" condition. These include three LR 86's with the SPRATT/PATENT/1850 embossing, only one of which is completely readable. That one is shown to the left in the larger pic with other views shown directly below it. The color is much darker than the other two SPRATTs. The one with the most damage has a bracket that is firmly affixed to it. There is also an unembossed Blue Aqua side-tab piece in the rear of the large photo that is an LR 58 that is way out-of-round (as shown in the detail photos directly below it). The two through-hole pieces are LR 15's. One is vnm with a couple bubbles and some carbon, and the other has a few shallow flakes at the top and bottom. The CD 20 battery rest with olive swirls is included in the photo as it was part of the deal. It's mint. Some of these will be offered for sale once they've been cleaned. Thanks for looking.
