Had these five insulators sent to me over the past week from West Virgina. Guess you can say I've done a lot of mining for glass in coal country over the last few months. This is the forth shipment I've recieved from the same contact. Both the Whithall Tatums 154's are in purple are mint condition. I needed them like I need a hole in my head. The creb in the center is the second light yellow green I've purchased from the same seller. Those along with the 133 creb were covered with train soot when they arrived. Found lots of nice milk stringers in the #3 crown 133 once the soot was removed. Back to the yellow gree 145 creb it has a double embossed shop number 21 and most of the rear crown embossing is ghost embossed as well.

To see a couple other loads of glass I've mined fromn coal counrty[id=325288701] and [id=312991148] . Some of you other insulator lover/nuts may recognize a few of the insulators shown. Not all insulators I come up with stay with me forever after being rescued.
