#3287 CD 133.4 Unmarked. Amethyst.
Typically termed a "Wormser bullet," the origins of their manufacture is speculation. The Wormser Glass Company is known to have produced insulators for a communication company that constructed lines where numerous aqua and amethyst examples of this type bullet were found in service many years ago. Therefore, it's been speculated that Wormser was a possible source.
A fairly sizable grouping of various attractive color tones can be assembled in this type insulator. Examples in the purple family range from very light pink to a fairly dark shade of amethyst, with many shades in between. Green units occasionally surface, and some offbeat colors including an unusual bluish gray tone are known. The three most exotic colors are cobalt blue, sapphire blue and amber.
Most examples of this type insulator have been found in Southwestern Pennsylvania, but limited numbers have been discovered elsewhere too.
Consigned by a collector who was very particular for decades about acquiring extra nice condition insulators, so this beauty is very near mint.
