#680 CD 158.9 BOSTON BOTTLE WORKS PATENT APLD FOR Light aqua.
Known as the "Screw-top Boston," this is a highly unusual and seldom seen insulator. Most or all have been found in the South, primarily in Alabama and Georgia. Some of those recovered have been located on the route of a railroad later known as the Central of Georgia Railway. The most recent sizable discovery was a small grouping dug in 2004 at a construction site in Augusta, Georgia. Most of the few examples found at that location had varying degrees of damage.
Due to the complex design with numerous thin, sharp corners, this is an especially difficult insulator to acquire without damage. The example offered is one of the best in the insulator hobby! Fully intact embossing on the inner skirt. None of the usual chipping on the segmented threads. Outer area is bright, sparkling and very near mint+.
