Description

#2227        Unmarked.        Bright green.      2" height.

This one has a tapered, very finely threaded pinhole, much like the threading on a bolt.  Made in a two piece mold. 

Two machinists from New Jersey, who had insulator collecting friends in the area, decided to make a couple small molds and produce insulator novelties, this being one of the "creations."  These are the same men who also produced the "B-T" units offered as Lots #2224 and #2225 in this event. 

Numerous different commemoratives and "private issue" insulator replicas have been made in the past four or five decades.  These early novelties predate the vast majority of them, when insulator collecting was in it's infancy.   For that reason, they have special appeal.

Attractive, rippled glass surface.  Very, very near mint.

Bob Moss collection.
