These are some of my nicer Carter 1897 cones. The TEALS are the toughest color. Sorry the pic isn't better.

LOVE your inks IDJ but the only thing I would say with all due respect to you is the mirrored back makes this look very busy and confusing to the naked eye, I would think a nice opaque backround would really do your inks just, it's hard to focus on any one ink with the reflective images. I hope you understand my meaning and don't take it the wrong way, great stuff....Jim

Paul,

Have you ever seen a Clear shoulder embossed Carters cone? Ive had quite a few of them in aqua and a couple teal ones in the past but only one clear example.

Thanks all for the nice comments.

Chris, I have never seen a true clear with Carter embossed on the shoulder, that one is special.

Epackage(Jim), I think you are correct. It is hard to focus with that mirrored background. I need to take another pic with the white background. Thank you for that helpful comment.

Best regards to all and good luck finding and digging items for your collections. Paul
