Description

#044     CD 257     HEMNGRAY.   PATENT JUNE 17 1890    MAY 2 1893.    Electric blue with opaque impurities.

The ever popular "Mickey Mouse" insulator in an attractive and scarce electric blue coloration.  Found on high voltage lines in the Kansas City area.  

The glass has an abundance of attractive milky-opaque impurities, especially concentrated in much of the insulator's mid-section.

Exceptional condition with only one drip point partially flaked (the center drip point in the second image is not damaged, rather did not fill out completely when molded).  Wonderful color - wonderful condition!
