<p>[QUOTE="say_it_slowly, post: 179964, member: 50"]I'm hoping Walter will look in. I did find a discussion of Bitossi bulls on Walter's site but since most of the photos won't display for me I thought I'd start here. Walter seems to feel the Bitossi bulls only came in blue (blu) at least as I understand it at the time of the discussions some years ago. [USER=90]@Walter Del Pellegrino[/USER]</p><p><br /></p><p>Walter kindly helped <span style="font-size: 16px">me identify an orange lamp as Bitossi some years ago so I am including the mark from the lamp. The lamp number begins with "B", the bull number ends with "B". I wonder if the number would be a guide in identifying it. It appears to be 4527B Italy though if you told me that it said 6527B I could see that too.</span></p><p><br /></p><p>This bull is a bit over 12" long and weighs over 4 lbs so is extremely hefty. He doesn't look at all new. There is the sticky glue remains of a square label but that really means little. The clay, where visible, is a bit reddish with some white flecks.</p><p>[ATTACH=full]50164[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]50165[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]50166[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]50167[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
