great dig, congratulations! Good news, that yellow ink is pontiled, and if its as yellow as it looks to me on my screen a bit harder to come by then the cobalt umbrella, although those are tough to get too

This one on Glass Works is very close to mine, but a bit yellower and darker... Believe me, I'll be watching it like a hawk!

It's lot 232. Forgot these crappy links don't work.

Congrats. I'm not an ink collector (meaning I don't usually buy them), but those sure are nice! Can't say I'd be disappointed with the cracked one AND the amber.

The insulators look like lightning rod system insulators. Not a great value for the aqua ones, but any with color or character are better.

Clean 'em and post them over in the insulators forum.

They are lightning rod insulators. I was surprised at how many were in there! All chipped up to varying degrees of severity. They're really crude, I think they'll look great when cleaned. They're old, right? I figure 1860's, when the house was built.

In looking back i might of jumped the gun as I see you said yours has some amber in it... Just a beautiful set of inks there... Hard to find those cobalt ones pontiled too... Hella nice job!

Great dig, Connor. [] ~Mike

Just found out by chance Steven Colbert's wife ended up ogling the dig... Didn't even realize it was her! Probably weirded her out with the digging... []

 

[tigue710]

I think it would be hard to weird out Steve Colbert's wife... propbably one of the more normal things she has seen...!

Wow! now there's national celebrities involved! I know this sounds like the first half of a sarcastic remark but I have no intention of enabling the 2nd half.. that's just plain awesome.. !
