Description

#2333         CD 131.4      L.G.T. & CO.       PAT JAN 25 1870   PAT FEB 22 1870      Aqua.

Produced for L.G. Tillotson & Company by Brookfield.   This type insulator was used along the Union Pacific Railroad in Nebraska and Wyoming, and other early communication lines.

Small b-b ding  (above "C") is a little larger than a wooden match head.  Associated flake is just a touch larger.  Large multi-colored pattern in same area is not damage, rather a reflection from the pinhole.  Very shallow, pencil eraser flake on reverse wire ridge and associated very hard to see, fingernail halo inside the glass.

A nice looking old timer that should retain about 80-85% of value compared to a very near mint example.
