Description

#1181      CD 1052      Unmarked.      Deep amber      Solid pour.

An insulator solid pour from the Bob Moss collection. 

A tag on the insulator indicates this is one of the insulators dug by him at the Millville glass factory site in 1981.

This is quite an interesting item, first because it is a solid pour.  The other interesting factor is the deep amber color, which is an unlisted for a Whitall Tatum product of this spool design. 

Bob, who has resided in Millville, New Jersey for many years, collected insulators for decades, and amassed a sizable grouping of solid pours, deformed and slumped insulators produced at the glass factory operated in Millville by Whitall Tatum, Armstrong and Kerr. 

Bob dug many of the oddball examples in his collection from a dumpsite on the factory property, as well as obtaining items carried home many decades ago by former workers at the plant.

Displays fairly well from one side.  The other side has a sizable portion chipped away, as shown in the second photo.
