The base glass is a highly Ultra-Violet reactive lemonade, vaseline, glass with white wispy strands surrounded by green and yellow corkscrews. The green and yellow are separated by a thin line of red, and there is a strand of carnelian bordering the outer edge of the green; thereby supplying all of the colors of the ADE family. I have seen these listed as flourescent Popeyes, but the base glass of a legitimate Popeye is clear with the white wispy strands, where this one has a cloudy vaseline yellow base. What I haven't seen very many of is: this wonderful high mint condition and the larger shooter size.
CONDITION: MINT(+) 9.7 The surface is wet and shiny with no sign of wear at all. There are a couple of melted dimples: one with some sort of white material at it's bottom visible in the first, second, and fourth pictures, and a very tiny pinpoint near the center of the third.
