189. SAILOR DANCING - BANJO PLAYER, (GXIII-8), probably Chapman Glass Works, Baltimore, Maryland, ca. 1860 - 1870, medium yellow green half-pint, open pontil, sheared and tooled lip.
Pristine perfect like new condition!
Great impression and no trace of wear or scratches! Nice glass whittle and tiny air bubbles. Very few are found with an open pontil and sheared lip (check the records) and never seen in this extremely rare and exciting color!
