Description

#3352        CD 123        E.C& M CO S.F.         Dark olive amber.      

"B" mold with 3-3/4" height.

Olive amber EC&M’s have been discovered along the routes of two communication lines operated by the Nevada & California Telegraph Company.  One was between Austin and Battle Mountain, Nevada and the other between Aurora and Candelaria, Nevada. 

They have surfaced in both the “B” and “H” mold variants.  In the early to middle 1960’s several olive amber examples were still in service on the Austin to Battle Mountain route, much to the delight of early day collectors!

An old resin repair to about half the base (some discoloration).  Only a small amount of repair is to the front base (see far right in first photo).  Second photo has the resin area marked with small white dots.

Not much glass missing on this one.
