Though not an "active" collector, I still keep and eye out and an ear to the ground for insulators. It's been in my DNA for 57 years. I check at least every other day on Facebook Marketplace for things I am active in collecting like WWII helmets and 1/6 scale figures. But I also check for insulators. Just by luck, the ad for this lot was only 41 minutes old. Though the years had not been kind to these pieces (they were all caked with mud up inside and had a thin coating on the outside) with nearly all having some degree of damage from minor chips or bruises to massive damage, probably caused by freezing ground they were stuck in. There were 2 plastic tubs of these garden decorations the owner pulled because they were moving but decided to only keep a few. Image one is the Mickeys. Sadly most are banged up badly though some are good display examples. |
