RE: Ohio Brass - 12/10/2006 7:32:51 PM    alabasterbottle   Posts: 73 Joined: 10/21/2005 From: Alabaster, Al Status: offline Thanks All, I can't find any markings on the three skirt insulator, but it looks just like the victor  dadwasadigger posted.. and Cap I did get a funny look from the wife when I walked in with it.. I also found two more today in the same area, a baby blue PINCO, 1968-15,000 and a S-LAP tower type (this one you damn sure wouldn't want to drop on your toe)..
