Can't really see how this insulator peacock color glows in my pic but you should be able to see the peacock color well. First and for most it displays very well from the front side where it is embossed H.G.CO. / PATENT MAY 2 1893. You will only see two flea bites. One on rim of dome and another near the top of skirt straight up between the space of G. and C of CO. My pic was taken from the side to show there are two cracks that are joined together right at the left side mold line. They may be tough to see but you can if you look close enough. Anyway, a portion of that joint crack arcs over and goes down to base just left of the Patent embossing on front skirt. The other portion of that joined crack is longer and stops at the top of the last T in Petticoat. On the rear side there is also a 1/2" long chip at base of skirt that is below the start of the Petticoat embossing. The dome on rear side has another 3 additional flea bites. Back to the front there is a much smaller chip straight down from the A of Patent at base of skirt. That flaked the front of the drip point behind. In general the drips are not all that bad and whatever ones are damaged show very little from the front side. I count a toptal of eight that are damaged just slightly. Lastly, when displaying from the front side you can see where the one joined crack is on the left side but you will have to strain your eyes to know it is there. I have plenty of other pics if anybody wants them. Exceptional crispy embossing on this No Name No.2 Cable insulator as seen in my pic. The color is a very nice light steel blue. About dead center of the rear skirt there is an over 1 X 3/8" long bubble. The only flaw is an opened bubble at the base of skirt on the rear side that caused a maybe 3/8" clamshell on bottom of skirt. Books says 500-600.
