Just as I normally do, I recently browsed craigslist for local insulators. These popped up on my screen, and I was quite surprised. I emailed the lady, and she told me to call. After talking it over she said there was two other people interested in the insulators, and the first one at her house gets them. That would be quite difficult for me because they were down in New Hampshire. I gave my Aunt a call, and she was happy to send my uncle to go get them the next day. A week or so later, he brought them up to Maine, and I just went to get them at his daughters house about a half an hour from me. L-R, Top to bottom: AT&T 121, GE widow maker with original pull-out, 160 Hemingray with rare Holmes tree insulator bracket, and style A insert, Rubber pony, Sage Lynchburg 162 (Picture doesn't show color) Montreal Telegraph 143 in some sort of blue with a very heavy snot string, amber swirls, and some sediment, New England Telephone and Telegraph 121, 104 NET&T, 102 Brookfield in possibly teal, Green 190 B, 145 with a little bit of amber, Gayner 162, porcelain Cutter, 102 with MAJOR amber, and I mean MAJOR, 124 Hemingray, another 162 Lynchburg, 112 star, 121 Hemingray, 191 Hemingray, and a yellow green New Eng. Tel and Tel 104. What a great find!
