The hooded bubblebacks are among the scarcest and most desirable of the 1940’s era bubbleback variations. Their popularity lead to enterprising individuals modifying the standard bubbleback by adding gold hoods to the cases. The case back reference # of 3065, and the extended tear drop shape of the lugs when viewed from the side confirm the originality and authenticity of this example.
