We have a thread running about what flag# or #'s you received, but I thought I would start another thread about your thoughts on the piece itself.

Here are a few of my thoughts on my initial observation of the ELL in hand:

-The size is just right.

-The detail is some of the best work I've seen from Harbour Lights.

-The removeable flag pole is the best they've done so far because it gives you the option of displaying it or leaving it in the box. I'm not a big supporter of flags on HL's because it is very difficult to produce a flag that matches the quality of the piece. I believe the pole is metal and I will be the first to admit it looks good.

-Have we had mini lightning rods molded into the ventilator ball before? I notice the ever so tiny rod sticking out of the ball on this piece. A nice touch for a special piece.

-It sure is nice the see that label on the felt that reads "Collector Forums Exclusive"!

-The detail and coloring of the bricks of the tower is more than just impressive.

How about some of your thoughts as this wonderful piece comes into your home.
