Here is some of the finds from my recent trip to Italy, plus some traded pieces from other collectors at the first ever European insulator collectors meeting in Pisa. In this picture they are in as found condition, with dirt and grime. There is a rare pin-type mushroom shaped piece, three glass pieces, two in green glass and one in purple, a string of small, green Hewlett discs, two very rare red banded telephone insulators, the same telephone pattern but smaller and in both white and blue glaze. And a very rare one; the same telephone pattern in the smallest size! Some "baby" cylinder heads as well, plus some very nice T-bars and a green glazed bell shaped cylinder head. I will post some pictures of them separately in the time to come.
