This is a set of 4 antique lightning rods with 4 light blue milk glass balls with the cool stars and moons design. This is a complete set other than two of the rods are missing the really pointy tip. The balls are in good overall conditon, with typical chipping on tops and bottoms that should be expected since they were out in the weather for most likely 80 years. The balls will be shipped in a separate package to be able to protect ball and i think it will be cheaper that way. As a gerneralization i would say rodes are at least 24 inches. Also, if you do not desire the rods let me know and the shipping will be considerably cheaper. Once again a set of 4, very old and rare. Happy bidding and feel free to ask questions, although my knowledge of these is limited.On Sep-03-08 at 19:20:39 PDT, seller added the following information:There is a discussion in my family as to what colors the balls are. they look a shade of light blue to me and my dad says white, mom says something in between. you be the judge. the picture isnt the best i apologize. the one ball in the bak looks dirty or something, its just a shadow. i assure you they are clean and even toned.On Sep-06-08 at 22:39:56 PDT, seller added the following information:I actually decided to put free shipping on this auction because i overestimated this is first.
