Fall 2025 Auction (October 03, 2025 7:00 AM PT - October 12, 2025 7:00 PM PT)

Applied top, 1870s. A dark cobalt blue umbrella ink with an applied top and crude whittled panels. This example was dug in downtown San Francisco and retains a tiny patch of dirt on the inside. There is a small 1/4" check in the neck that was likely a result of the top being applied during manufacture. Due to the dark color of the neck, the check will not show up in the photos we tried to take.
