Here are a few pieces I uncovered today at a large antiques mall in the middle of nowhere. Porcelain insulators on the left include a pair of minty U-18 dry process, carved tops, one in Brown, the other Metallic Brown, both very crude. I believe the PINCO-Z is an M-2612; I believe the incuse marking is unlisted; and I believe the color is Reddish Brown—also unlisted. The minty ink is faint SCA and is base-embossed (arc) CARTER'S/No. 5/(arc) MADE IN U.S.A. Glass insulators on the right include a minty CD 152 EIN [070] (F‑Skirt) BROOKFIELD/6 (R‑Skirt) Иo 48 {Backwards 'N'} {MLOB} RB in Aqua, and two No Embossing – Canada CD 133.2 EIN [010] [No embossing] {Slope shoulder} {MLOD} SB, one in snowy Teal Aqua with a wave of steam running 360° around the skirt, the other in rich Dark Yellow Green also with some white bits of snow. Unfortunately, both of these have noticeable damage on the opposite side. Still, nice hidden treasure to find. Inquiries welcome.
