Bob, even though I can tell very little from your pictures, I will take a chance and buy this piece if the price, including mailing, is reasonable. Are all your finds still For Sale? What say! Jim

From your photos, I would call it teal, just a little greener than Ball Blue.

I'll offer all I can afford at the moment, $30.00 mailed to my door. If you receive a better offer I certainly understand. I'll be away from my computer Monday & Tuesday. Jim
