Yellow Cased Plain Round Lightning Rod Ball
YELLOW CASED PLAIN ROUND LIGHTNING ROD BALL This is the very last ball left from our collection. It is a very bright yellow cased ball(two layers of glass. The inside is clear, the outer is yellow. One of the collars has typical chipping around the circumference. The other collar has.5" chip with the apex of the chip to the surface of the ball where it migrates about 1/8" onto the surface of the ball. This is a large collar plain round mold and I do have the appropriate size end caps to cover the collars. The chipping will not show since all will be covered with the caps. It will make a great addition to any collection. I also want to point out that on one side of the ball there seems to be bubbles that formed in the clear inside layer of the ball. This is in two separate areas. I can feel the inside surface and it seems that the ... moremolten glass didn't fill the mold completely. The result is that the glass is"thinner" at that point and if you hold the ball so that light shines through it. There is definitely an imperfection. It is very hard to sustain imperfections on the inside of ball that didn't happen at manufacture. In the photo below, you will see a light"oval" area to the right of the fleshy part of my thumb. It is less than a.5" in length. Directly below the"oval" bubble is a scratch on the surface of the ball which is about 1/8" in diameter. It looks like a"b-b or rock ping" The definitely scratched the glass, but, fortunately, there was no cracking involved. About.5" to the right of the"ping" is another double bubble on the inside layer of glass, giving two shade of lightness to the glass. It measures about.75" in diameter. Below is a photo of the scratch reflected in the daylight of the room where the photo was taken. One good thing about the"ping" and the bubbles is that they are clustered together on one side of the ball. A worthy concluding ball offered from our collection. The ball measures 5" end co

Plain Round Lightning Rod Ball 4-Star Weathervane
Plain Round Lightning Rod Ball 4-Star Weathervane. This is an all metal arrow use on systems where a plain round ball would be mounted with end caps in the middle of the circular center of the arrow. There is a whole in the bottom and top of the circular center which takes the verticle rod of the system. Four stars are attached to the circular center. The vane is in excellent shape and appears to be all original. Originally. It appears that the stems of the stars were threaded rods that screwed in to the circular center. However, time and weather has corroded the rods and they are permanently fixed in place. I would not want to remove them for fear of breaking off the ends of the short star rods. The vane from arrow tip to tail tip measures 22" in length. Star tip to star tip in height is 9" The opening in the center is 5.25 in ... morediameter. The rod openings in the circular center is just about.5" in diameter. This is a classic weathervane for any collection. RcmdId ViewItemDescV4,RlogId p4%60bo7%60jtb9%3Fv%7F.rpn35%3E-13d0c864521-0x105-

Antique or Vintage. Kind of hard to date these, Lightning Rod/Weathervane. As you can see it has had it's years of use, the arrow does not rotate freely and will need a little work if you are intending to use this item, if not its a great piece of American art form from the past. Also as shown in the pictures the pointed top does come off, and will be off for shipping. They say a picture is worth a thousand words so unless you have questions I'll just give dimensions. The entire piece is 67" tall the arrow is 23" wide and the white ribbed ball is 4" tall. Thanks for looking!
