Description

#2067      CD 211      NO LEAK D   PATENTED       BROOKFIELD       Dark green aqua.      No insert.   

Attractive green toning in this scarce item!

Leonard Storrer, of San Francisco, California received a patent on March 24, 1908 for a new method of insulating electric wires.  His invention used a glass disc inserted into the bottom portion of a corresponding insulator.  This created a zone of dryness, even during wet or foggy weather.  Apparently, his experiences with foggy conditions in northern California prompted his invention.  

Some were found in California many years ago, as well as the Stampeded Pass area of Washington State.  A rather scarce Brookfield product.

Shallow, pencil eraser diameter dome flake is minor.  Fingernail chip, up from the base (see second photo).  Displays quite well from both sides with embossing forward.
