#2969 CD 257 HEMINGRAY PATENT JUNE 17 1890 MAY 2 1893 Aqua with green impurities.
The various designs of Hemingray insulators are often different from what other manufacturers produced. Numerous other glass houses produced a standard "saddle groove" insulator for high voltage, most manufacturing the CD 258 though 260 "helmet" designs, whereas Hemingray created a completely differing design, the CD 257 "Mickey Mouse" type.
Typically found in aqua and Hemingray blue, the the examples with green or amber impurities are in high demand by collectors.
This one has attractive green streaking, with nice separation in the ears.
Two drip points are only partially flaked. Pinkie nail flake, up from base, at side mold line.
