Here's an unusual porcelain insulator shaped like a noser but is threadless and has an unusual hexagonal inner skirt with the nose portion with a U shaped opening to receive a wire. Debossed marking: "PAT FEB 11-08 RAJAH." "MADE IN GERMANY" (faint but readable mark on dome). This insulator was recovered from an old shipwreck off the coast of Nova Scotia years ago. Never seen another. See other photos [id=651967069] and [id=651967000].

Has tiny 3mm flake on edge of nose otherwise excellent condition. First email gets it for only $125 plus shipping. Thanks
