Insulators~!

[Bixel]

My prized possessions are my glass insulators. Since I live in Canada, I have alot of good canadian stuff. I specialize in the CD 102 "Pony" styles. I also have a purple CD 162 1678, and my best insulator is a US piece that I got from some friends that got it while on holidays. It is a Green, CD 133.1, Pat App For. It is unlisted because it has MLOD. I love the color of the piece. Sorry I dont have a picture!

anybody else have any prised insulators? They dont have to be worth alot for you to love them, but that never hurts![]

I have a Confederate "egg" insulator that was dug in Richmond, Va., many years ago. Those guys actually had guns and knifes with them to protect their finds! Mine has a chip out of the bottom edge, but I don't, seeing as how it is a threadless Confederate egg.

Now I know where my mind went!

Coloured glass insulators are very nice.

While I do not collect insulators per se, I have a couple of mates who do, and I think they have thousands in their collection.

Cheers!

I have seen a few of those confederate eggs up on ebay lately. I really like them, but by far, my favorite CD( style) number is the 102 ( threaded), or 718 in the threadless category! I have never dug a complete threadless, I have never even dug a shard of a threadless, but im only 16, so I have lots of time ahead of me!
