    These are before my time I believe, but I see them in a lot of antique stores. Not a collecting thing for me but I decided to get one cus I see them and love the color off the suns reflections from it. It has flaws but thats what I like about it, a history. Its a Hemingray and know its mostly common but it called me, Lol.

      I have several of these by different makers.
      I have some rebar I poke into the ground in the garden, and just put these on top.
      Had people ask me why, and I just say Just Because. :)
