Hi Zane,
Yes, keep any insulator with ears ... they're always in demand.

Here is the PG listing:

CD 263

Columbia

[040](F-Skirt)PAT'D MAY 12 1891 / COLUMBIA
{Inside of outer skirt is threaded} SB
DARK AQUA, GREEN AQUA     150-175
LIGHT AQUA                175-200
LIGHT BLUE                200-250
GREEN                     400-500
DARK YELLOW GREEN         600-700
With all the amber swirls, I'd say about 550-650 if it's minty fresh.

Those Columbias are SWEET! I was a power lineman for many years and have scavenged a few good ones in my time. I had a job in Oakland, CA, where my crew were scoring lots of Roman Helmets. and other good insuls. It was fierce competition to hit the poles for the best ones. It's weird that they didn't really interest me, except fom a historical perspective. I have never collected insulators; too busy with bottles, I guess.

I don't collect them either but it's easier to get insulators from this guy than good bottles.
