Dude, you keep flaililng wildly like that you'll put someone's eye out. [;)]

As Brains mentioned, it looks like a Canadian pony. Drip points didn't come along until 1893, and Hemingray's US patent didn't expire until 1910, but I don't know how that would have affected Canadian glassmakers. That said, though, I'd say this one is probably 1910-1920ish. Maybe Barrett or Kyle will have a more precise date range.

Hey there!

That piece certainly is a Canadian pony. It's an unembossed Canadian CD-102. It's generally a pretty scarce Canadian insulator with the unembossed and drip point combination, but I understand that there are areas of the country where these abound. If it's in good shape, it's probably in the $15-30 range depending on the day. :p
Oh, and it's probably in the 1910-1920 age time frame.
Good find! I haven't seen too many of them in these parts.
