NOTE: Click on linked names to see a biography. Important Added Info: Note that this still has two punch holes in the top border, so it could be a key book still, or someone could have just put those punch holes there. Also note that this still measures 8 1/4" x 10" [21 x 25 cm]. Note that this still likely has a stamp on the back in the form of a diamond that has the letters "TRR". One certainly might wonder who placed this stamp there and why. The answer is that 160 of the stills in this set of auctions come to us from a still collector who has collected for many decades, and long ago he began stamping the back of almost his stills with this stamp, and "TRR" is his initials! Each of those stills is stamped lightly, and the stamp does NOT affect the front of the still. He is a VERY advanced collector, and he has consigned many wonderful stills to us! Condition: good to very good. There are two punch holes in the top border (see above) and a diagonal crease in the lower left of the image that appears to be a printing defect. Otherwise, the still is in nice condition! Learn More about condition grades
