Insulator

[wvbottlehead]

It wasn't broken and I didn't find anything else so I carried this big ugly thing outta the woods today. It's 11 inches across & weighs 11lbs. I don't much collect insulators but I thought it'd be a conversation piece (actually it's kinda growin on me a little). Don't expect it's worth much but maybe somebody can tell me more about an ID?

Thanks,

Frank

How did you climb up that big tower?
Does anyone else see faces on the side of that thing... it may be haunted.

OK, yes, I can see 2 faces. Probly not haunted though. lol But, maybe.

All I know is I took a 2 hr nap this evening and ya it keeps starin at me. might need a Priest to get ridda this one. [:-]

That is neat--I'd use it for a centerpiece at Thanksgiving. Does it have any maker's marks? Have you checked
www.myinsulators.com
?

Thanks Ronvae - I checked that site and a couple others, I did email a fellow on one of them . There is no maker marks that I can find, it looks like it could be an Ohio Brass, but I think theirs are usually marked. Anyway it's 6.75 inches tall. If I put it on my table we wouldn't have room for the turkey [] (thats glare on the front rim)
