Hello everyone. I'm stumped trying to make a correct ID on this insulator. It looks similar to a CD 268, however it is only 2" tall and 1 1/2" in diameter. Any help is greatly appreciated.

It is a Lightning Rod insulator. It is minus it's metal holder which is used to attach the insulator to the side of a building and the lightning rod runs through the hole into the ground. They are very plentiful in that color and worth only a few dollars. Other colors can be spendy.
