CD 164 [010] B.G.M. CO. in a nice shade of purple. I got this in September 2003 on eBay. It had a bad picture and the eBay title read "Purple Insulator, Half top hat, NR" and the description read "Purple insulator is a half top hat. In great condition. There are a few small chips, one on the skirt, and the other in the inner skirt. THERE MAY BE MORE CHIPS THAT ARE NOT DESCRIBED. B.G.M. CO. is easily read. Please feel free to e-mail me with any questions." A scary description... yes but it ended up being a beauty. The nicest I'd ever seen for sale to date.

I would be interested in hearing from others who share an interest in Baltimore Glass Manufacturing Company - B.G.M. CO. insulators. I am always looking for variations I don't have and those with milky or olive swirls to add to my collection.
