Nice find!! An aqua Tillotson CD 731, currently books at 400 - $500 in good shape. These are American made, interesting to see one found in NS. Tillotson was not a glass maker but a telegraph supply house - here's a good article on the company:http://www.telegraph-history.org/tillotson-greeley/tillotson.html

That is a good one to have in your collection - congrats!! i still have a few, but not part of my interest right now, I still like to get the solid ones, which were created when the filled the mold with hot glass to heat up the metal molds. RED M.

Thanks for the replies and info. I have already notified the finder. Unfortunately it apparently has a crack in it. I hope to get more pictures of it. I believe it is for sale if someone wants to make an offer.

well folks, it sold in a flash despite being cracked. Here are a few more pictures I got. [attachment=16361_734130163326...732022510748_n.jpg] [attachment=1959626_7341302099...387167896580_n.jpg] [attachment=10414897_734130359...001455374654_n.jpg]

So it is obviously the type that would improve any collected group. The ones used before the wooden threaded holder post, are fascinating because the wind could lift the old ones like this off the pole. RED Matthews

I am sure the new owner appreciates it. The finder sold it for $500.00 to a collector here in Nova Scotia. Top $$$ for a cracked insulator!! Everyone's happy!!
