Here are most of the insulators, while we're breaking for lunch.

The auction items are on the left half of the picture, and are partly cleared out already as the auction was about half completed before lunch.

I like that zinc-air primary cell on the end of Josh Dondorf's table. The carbon electrodes in it are still in good shape! The zincs are mostly gone. It's nice to see one of these with some of the internal components intact.

Against the back wall on the right is our host Arlen Rienstra's table, with among other thing a large selection of cable insulators. Check out the ginormous fuse. Roger Lucas had a bird dish and other items displayed on the left corner of Arlen's table.

The row of three card tables back to front have Tom Nugent's Ameritech tools, telephones, and other items; Gene Hawkins' insulators; and Pat Reed's insulators and practice hand grenade.

On the far right is Marge and Russ Frank's table, and Dan Ling's table.
