As I stated in your previous post this piece is a CD (Consolidated Design) 115 and in that color (blue shades, no green) very common and not worth much, a couple of bucks. However, since you dug / discovered it, it is worth a lot sentimentally. Perhaps it is the start of a lifetime hobby. I collected bottles and insulators and fruit jars for a LONG time and insulator collecting was the most satisfying, the people in the hobby are very down to earth. Jim

I don't recall seeing this CD 115 Brookfield with sharp drips very often. If memory serves well, it is rarer with the drips. Cool find!

Anyone from ICON verify or slam my fingers in a desk?

Well, no, slap MY mouth. I didn't go far enough in the look-see, it does have SDP. That makes them worth $30 - $40 in my OLD Price Guide, perhaps more now. Thanks Muddy, for your sharp eye. I guess I've been out of insulator collecting for too long. Jim

As far as I am aware that is a very hard one to find. Definitely worth something to a Brookfield specialist...condition looks pretty good.

Cool find. The current book (2011) lists these as 40-50, but as nhpharm points out, a Brookfield specialist will be very interested in this kind of piece and I suspect they'd be willing to pay a bit more. If the drip points are in good condition, that's a plus.
