Roger Lucas has recently found a couple of interresting foreign porcelain insulators. The one on the left is a fornasetti designed insulator (see Rick Sollers article on these insulators in the April 2009 issue of Crown Jewels). The one on the right is stamped "Rosenthal Bavaria" and has flowers fired on one side, with the letters, W.V.F. on the other side in gold. A gold band is around the wire groove and on top in the crosshatch. Also the "WFV" lettering is painted on each ear top. |
