Status: offline 		Thanks, Digger George! Thats a lot of dough. I was looking through my boxes and came across this nice bottle. It has a slugplate saying the words Famico Plagmio on it, which is latin, and in english I looked up and means "Family Plague." Kinda creepy. It also has a big pontil on the bottom that goes in about 1.5 inches. I'll post some pictures.

Status: offline 		the insulators are mostly common except for the large domed aqua one and maybe the small green tinted one between the brown spool and the white ceramic insulator. I cant tell, but it looks like a cd 102? I'de like to know the embossing on the large aqua and small light green ones. The large aqua is a cd-281, hemingray and lynchburg made that style. if it's a hemingay, book is 15-20 and if it's lynchburg, 2000-3000. Looks to be hemingray from this point of view because of the color.

Status: offline 		Yea, you were right, it is a Hemingray. The embossing says "Hemingray No 1 High Voltage." On the other side it says "Patent May 2, 1893."
