Here's a really cool set of porcelain insulators with nearly identical matching two-tone glazes: Dark chocolate tops with caramel brown skirt/base! The caramel is lighter color than the camera captured giving it an even more striking contrast than seen in photo. The signal is in excellent condition with only a small chip slightly larger than match head, a hard to see small base flake (smaller than pumpkin seed) and small light use mark on the crown. Possibly dry process made.

The spool is the same colors with a similar size small base chip that is likely factory. Has the base cracking typical of early dry process porcelain insulators. One of the base hairline cracks extends up into the surface glaze of the wire groove.

I've never seen matching two-tone colors in different u-number insulators before now. Perhaps indicates they were made at the same factory? First email gets the cool pair of matching two-tone insulators for only $50 plus 11 shipping. Thanks!
