#3660 CD 257 HEMINGRAY PATENT JUNE 17 1890 MAY 2 1893 Aqua with olive amber impurities.
Nice color contrast in this example. A green body is complimented with ears that are mostly aqua.
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.
Sparkling, shiny example with only one drip point partially flaked.... remainder is fabulous!!!
