Insulator finds

[kastoo]

I was riding down the street when I see bottles lying everywhere..sticking out of the dirt...it's a field that used to be inhabited by houses...they edged or something. Well you know I had to check...crap all new bottles and the only one I would have kept was broken...a diamond RC ACL. However, I did spot 2 insulators in 2 different spots...one turned out to have an interesting effect on it's finish...judge for yourself.

YOu have to get someone else to chime in here...I'm foggy on RC...if I were to guess..it was Chero Cola, the Pyramid RC bottle then Red Diamond RC......probably not worth a lot but I haven't found one yet....I'll tell ya though..find a real small town in ACL on one of those ACL bottles and you might have something.

I guess they had the new guy learning how to glaze that day.

i've always loved porcelain insulators..Sadly normal brown ones like those two are worth 2-4bucks each, if that..I have 2 boxes full of junk insulators friends have given me over the years..Just can't seem to part with them.

What about the 2-digit number (mold) on the bottom of the RC bottle that could be the date?

EXAMPLE: 58=1958, 65=1965
