Great M-2052 No Name multipart porcelain insulator. Although there are no markings on the piece, I believe it was made by Thomas. The glaze is spectacular. From what information I was able to gather, these pieces were used on a trolley line near Oneonta, NY. I bought it in an antique shop in Oneonta around 15 years old. The piece measures approximately 5 ¼ inches tall by 5 ¾ inches wide. Overall it is in good condition. There is a V shaped chip on the middle groove that is approximately an inch long by 1/2 an inch tall. There are four small flakes and one ding on the same groove. The flakes measure 1/8 of an inch, 3/8 of an inch, ¼ of an inch and ¼ of an inch. There is also a flat 3/8 of an inch by 3/8 of an inch flake on the bottom that causes a super thin ½ inch flake on the base.

$125 including shipping.
