#3634 CD 135.5 E.R.W. Aqua.
Large, bold lettering.
The Erie Railway used these “pilgrim hat” insulators on their “main line” through New York State and a portion of Pennsylvania, as well as several of their branch lines. The pilgrim hat style is typically recognized as an early, threadless form of insulator, making these threaded units quite unique. Several examples were found many years ago, still adorning poles, on the early “Buffalo Branch of the Erie Railway,” north-west of Hornellsville (now Hornell), which is depicted in the Currier & Ives print print shown in the last image.
These embossed E.R.W. hats are among the oldest threaded insulators made in America and are eagerly sought by collectors.
SPECTACULAR condition!!!!! These are scarce in average condition, and rare in great condition. Here's one of the very best in the insulator collecting hobby! Bright sparkling, shiny glass, and overall very near mint+ condition! You could look for many years and not find one this nice!!!
