OH MY ! ! ! ! DID YOU DO GOOD ? ? You actually did GOODER ! The Harloe Glass Works in HAWLEY, PA. CD 145s (you are correct) are not scarce even with the backward "S". However, the "Slumped" appearance is now much sought after by many collectors and thus brings a premium. I am not up on my insulator values as I sold my extensive collection a few years ago but I know these will be easy to market if that is your intention. If not, clean them up and they will make a great display / conversation piece. I suggest mounting them side by side either leaning towards or away from each other. If you sell them, sell them separately but shown / pictured together.Please let us know what you decide to do, I'm really interested in knowing "the rest of the story".

The current Price Guide value for the aqua one is $3-5, which doesn't take into account any abnormalities. Does the blue aqua one have milk swirls in it? If so, the PG lists that one as $20-30. Like the "slumped" appearance, milk, amber, and other "junk" can increase the demand and price. Good find!

Thanks for all the responses, the one on the right (more blue one ) has two areas of milky swirls (very light) running from 1/2 inch from the base to 1/4 inch from the top (can't get a good pic). Both are really crude with bubbles and cold mold marks through out. Note; they are reversed in the second picture. They will find a spot in my collection if I can find room!!! Thanks again
