#1 has a few rubbed chips at the point atop 3 of he panels. They are NOT detracting.
#2 from Clinton, Iowa, is about the same – nothing heartbreaking by any means.
#3 another form of the Rockford, Illinois etching is also about the same but with small, rubs and surface chips on about seven of the ten panel points. I hope I’m turning you off by the picky descriptions of condition, but I want everything right here up front.
TruZ-Me-On-This’n: Any collector or interior designer with a love of primary colors and intriguing form would be thrilled.
#4 has those same types of rubbed surface losses at the same points. Even these are nothing heartbreaking.
#5 is one of the two with only the vertical etching: “NEHI BOTTLING CO.” It is in excellent condition.
Please note the missing slat portions on the bottom. It’ll be secure when it leaves my little dirt farm. I’ll see to that.
