Here's a pretty darn scarce Westinghouse signal in a very eye pleasing lime green. This piece is rather perplexing because it has a very substantial crack around the insulator but I find no external damage to cause this crack so I suspect that this is either from annealing stresses as there's a small annealing fracture and fissure in the inner skirt which could have started it OR, it got frost cracked from the inside. Either way, there is zero glass missing from any part of this crack and insulator will fill a VERY tough hole in your collection. Book is a whopping $800-$1,000 so I'll offer it for $210 shipped in the USA/CANADA.Other countries I will assist with ship costs. First mail to me. More pix of rear and sides on req. Lots of lookers and no? Let's take her down to $180.....
