#3585 735 U.P.R.R. MULFORD & BIDDLE. Aqua.
The 735 threadless insulators with “U.P.R.R.” embossing were produced for use on the historic, first transcontinental railroad line in America, completed in 1869. They were placed in service through Wyoming and into Utah, all the way to Promontory, where the rails of the Union Pacific and the Central Pacific met.
These historic jewels are typically found with moderate to fairly heavy damage, and are quite difficult to find in excellent condition. One of the better condition examples!!!
No damage at all on the entire outer portion of the insulator. Portions of the glass surface are a little hazy. A small area, close to the base, below the "U.P." may appear like damage, but is actually two small, fully enclosed bubbles with no damage at all. The only damage is a shallow, one inch area at the base. An impact caused the glass to slightly separate, but the glass is still present (see third photo).
A special example!
