During the period between 1969 to 1971, I made several trips to hunt insulators on the Central of Georgia Railway telegraph line North from Macon, Georgia to Athens, Georgia. My favorite section was between Godfrey, GA to Madison, GA. My notes indicate the line had four tiers of insulators which were mostly common types including aqua CD 145 W. Brook, CD 145 B, CD 133 /134 W. Brookfield insulators. Although, this was a typical Western Union telegraph line there were no CD 127 or CD 126.3 insulators - only CD 126 dome embossed Brookfield's. The unique insulators in this section also included: three new signals that were not in my collection. In the next posts I will show these three unique signal style insulators. The exact embossing on the first signal is as follows:

CD-134 No Embossing - Deep Blue /Nearly Teal (with 1,000 of tiny bubbles) (appears to be a Pennycuick style with a tiny button of glass on the inside of the dome)

This is the second post which shows a picture of the back and attempts to enhance the bubble pattern.
