Description

#2877      CD 641.2        EST      VERRIES DE REIMS          Dark olive green.

Height:   4-3/4 inches.

The medium size, French gingerbread style insulator known as the "Momma." 

The "EST" marking is in reference to a French railway.  Verries De Reims" is a glasshouse. 

Speaking generally in relation to the various sizes of gingerbread insulators, the "Momma" is much scarcer than the larger "Man" or smaller "Boy."    Additionally, Pole Top Discoveries has sold a few Mommas over the years, however this is only  the second example with the additional "Verries De Reims" lettering.  It's a scarce one!

Outside area is shiny and clean!  Shallow flake type chip on base is pinkie nail size plus a slightly extended tail (see photo very bottom, to right of center)

Update:  3 P.M. Sunday, February 19.  Second image added showing the small, shallow, flake type chip on the base.  Remainder of insulator is excellent!

Buy-Now Price: $210.
