RE: Brookfield insulator - 4/13/2008 9:53:51 PM    Brains   Posts: 482 Joined: 9/2/2006 From: Hilliard/columbus ohio Status: offline thats a common insulator, and in most cases amber swirls are common in brookfields but in yours the pattern is quite nice and the amount of amber is more than normal. Normally, the amber is blended with the aqua to make a greensh aqua color ut the amber in yours seems well seperated.  Thats a cd-102, probably made in around 1910-1921. Good find! post any more that you find. _____________________________ Let me know when the telegraph companies want their hemingray-42's back! bryan (in reply to lobeycat) Post #: 5
