Two styles of Brookfield CD 136 insulators, in a simulated "in service" photo. Considering the differences in manufacturing style of these two insulators (one with mold line over dome, the other not), why were ...

Here's a beauty. That wonderful color that always alludes totally accurate descriptions. As an old artist, let me tell you this is definitely what any glass artist would call light teal green. It's that color you see in ...

These are getting tough to come by. [020] without the MLOD. Nice aqua color. 1 inch base flake before the left mold line and 1/2 inch base flake just after the right mold line. Couple dome pecks. $70 including priority ...

Check this pony out. This is a Brookfield [150] embossing index. Large '9' on the rear dome. Color is a nice light olive green - but check out the amber streaks throughout the piece. Flat 3/4 inch base flake in rear. ...

Here is a Hemingray-19. Mostly clear/off clear but there is a bit of aqua in the left skirt and a little in the left dome. There are two surface annealing lines between the colors from the skirt up to the wire ridge - ...

Here's a Canadian Diamond toll in a twisted shape that defies description. Was too warm outta the mold. Inner skirt has saggy glass running to base. Steamy threads as well. Just two small w/g fkakes from perfect?? LOL A ...

Here's a look at an unlisted Hemingray-21 with round drips similar to a piece I found a couple years ago, see previous piece: This embossing is similar, from a well-used mold, the embossing is not as sharp as on the ...

Here's the CD 152 Hemingray #40 that we took. We'll leave the tie wire on this one. The drip points are all pointing in towards the inner petticoat too. Must have been set down out of the mold way too soon.

Here's another Italian insulator rarely offered for sale. This is a larger cable top piece measuring 5 inches tall in an attractive and unlisted Light Aqua. Embossed (mold nr/MIVA) [front] B 130/UNEL 38112 [reverse]. ...

You see these variants much less often than the styles with the'Elmer Ring', which these lack. In fact, these two are quite different from each other. The blue one has an open base bubble with a tiny flake towards the ...

The only way you can get this stunning color into your collection is to own one of these fascinating Argentine insulators. The color of this one is rich and vibrant - I think you guys call this a "glower". It ...

Greetings! This is a nice contrasting pair of insulators representing the old and the new. The first is embossed (front) A/HEMINGRAY/No. 4 (back) 4/PATENT/MAY 2, 1893 (rear crown) PAT. DEC. 19, 1871 - there are some ...

Greetings! This is a really nice crown embossed W. BROOKFIELD/45 CLIFF ST N.Y. (weak embossing) that has some amber streaking, a nice sized bubble below the embossing and scattered seedy bubbles to give it some cool ...

Greetings! Here is a very cool looking piece of Denver glass. It has a glob of amber and a bubble strategically placed above the embossing. The glass is super clean and does not have the usual cooling stresses and lines ...

Up for sale is an unlisted CD 112.4 B.T.C. This piece has the blotted out embossing. This piece is unlisted because of it's Olive Amber Color. I have seen quite a few of the Olive Green ones but only a handful of these. ...

The one on the left has a #11 on the dome, and there was a rather half-hearted attempt to blot out PAT. and two 1870 and a single 1877 date, this I beleive is unlisted and appears to a very late state in the life of a ...

Here is another beauty that always seems to be a popular, fast selling item. This CD 252 MAYDWELL - 62 has a purple tint and although it appears to be in perfect condition there is one trouble spot. There is a very low ...

CD 134 embossing error BROOKFIFED. Aqua/green two-tone. The embossing is unusual for a Brookfield. The letters are uneven and very thin, almost as if someone not familiar with mold making typography quickly hacked at ...

This CD 126 Brookfield has the patent dates embossed on the front and rear lower wire ridge. It is a light aqua color. The picture shows it too blue. There is a small open bubble on the base (see photo), and a couple of ...
