Description

#1671       CD 121       PAT'D SEPT 19TH 1899.       Light aqua.

The "pleats" on the skirt are an interesting feature patented by Frederick Withycombe.  Likely produced at a glass factory in Elmer, New Jersey which operated in the early 1900's.   Examples were used on communication lines in Missouri, California, Oregon and perhaps other locations.

A lighter aqua color than is typically encountered in this type insulator, and with just a hint of green impurities in one side of the insulator. 

Very near mint.

BUY-NOW option was removed once the reserve price was met.

Buy-Now and auction purchases will be invoiced by email prior to 12 noon, Thursday, September 9.  Invoices will also be viewable to purchasers on the auction site at that time by clicking the "MY ACCOUNT" tab on the upper portion of the auction page.
