Up for grabs this afternoon is a spectacularly-coloured yellow-olive green B CD 191... unfortunately, only the top half of the two-piece CD 190/191 transposition set. This is the most desirable colour that the B CD 190/191 set occurs in... if only it were the complete insulator! Yes, the insulator is yellow-olive green, but the extremely deep, vibrant colouration seems to be nearly impossible to photograph. This, washed-out "emerald"-looking green is the best photograph I can seem to take. As you can see from the bottom view, there are amber swirls running through the insulator. This may be what gives it such a rich depth of colour.

The condition of the half is good. The only significant damage is a 3/8" long flat flake running horizontally along the upper wire ridge, on the front half. There are two 1/8" white fleabites on the front, one on the skirt and one on the crown. Short of that, there are a few tiny micro-pinpricks, and that appears to be all!

I'm asking $150.00 for this half of a very rare and desirable two-piece insulator. For someone who has the bottom piece, this will be an excellent price to complete the set! I accept PayPal, and personal cheques or money orders from any member of ICON, or anyone I've dealt with before. Please feel free to email me for more photos, or with any questions. I encourage you to look through my "For Sale (Not Sold)" stock, and combine items to save on shipping. All the best!
