Here are some pieces of foreign porcelain I've gathered so far. The first piece is an interesting two part piece from Italy. The thing that is strange is that it is not a pintype, but it looks as if the wires went though the bottom of the piece and were secured when the two pieces were screwed together. The next two German pieces are really interesting as the first one is a very common style, but it has a very scarce marking on it: M. Bit & Schomburg, Berlin. The following insulator is a common style again, but the neat thing is that the pin is part of the insulator itself and the whole thing bolted up to the pole. The last toll is very similar in size/shape to a CD 122, but the inside threading is like that of a CD 122.4; it is threaded inside to the base. I am told that this piece is of Brazilian origin.
