Shown are 3 porcelain insulators believed to be Swedish. Markings on the tops of the 2 outside insulators similar to markings on 3 that James Bancroft rescued from Sweden on a recent trip with Fredrik Hojefalt. The centre piece has the Bullers logo visible, just below the wire groove. It was suggested by the seller that these 3 might be of Norwegian origin. Were similar insulators also used in Norway, or were the same insulators possibly used in both countries, as also happened in Canada and the States.

Fredrik Hojefalt of Sweden advises that the Swedish Suspects are in fact produced in Norway, and used in Norway. The 2 outside insulators are similar in design to Swedish production, but definitely are from Norway. Thanks Fredrik
