Lewill alerted me on that one, and I have made a bid. Not top bidder now, but there is lots of time left.

It's pretty rough. It should be marked "G. A. GLOOR - PATENTED - CHICAGO". A couple nice ones have brought $100 on past auctions, a lesser example, $40.

Yes, very pitted, but one I don't have and I have been wanting one like that for a while, so I'll try to win it within reason.
