CD-288 - MERSHON       Sold For: $61       Color: Light Aqua
This is an interesting style, where the ribs were designed to help redirect water to run off the sides of the crossarm rather than collect on the crossarm, assuming, of course, that the insulator was oriented correctly on the crossarm! 1/4" base flake, two thin 1/2" bruises, 1 1/2" rainbow bruise at the base of the innermost skirt. An unusual underpour creates a wavy outer skirt on one side and an underpoured skirt on the other side. You may have a CD 288, but do you have one with an underpoured umbrella? If not, this one is for you!

CD-288 - MERSHON       Sold For: $209       Color: Light Aqua
This is an interesting style, where the ribs were designed to help redirect water to run off the sides of the crossarm rather than collect on the crossarm, assuming, of course, that the insulator was oriented correctly on the crossarm! One 1/4" base flake and a little roughness on the inside of the skirt, otherwise very near mint. The sharp inside lip of the umbrella is perfect! A nice example of this odd style!
