Here is a tip: if you are going to buy at a car boot sale on a frosty morning be sure your specs aren't steamed up and check, check, check! This is a really nice example. If you look at the fore right hand corner it has been ground, probably taking a chip out of it. My usual check is by touch for any rough edges or chips but on this occasion the cold weather and condensation made me hurry my purchase. It does display well but now I know the repair is there it sticks out like a sore thumb. Buyer beware.
Good warning and advice frankie-- I think all glass collectors have had this happen to them a time or two!
