Insulator of the Month - Pretty Good Toll
Reprinted from "Crown Jewels of the Wire", February 2005, inside front cover
More than a pretty good toll, it's a pretty, R. Good, Jr toll. Insulators
embossed with Robert Good's name were manufactured in four CD styles: CD 106, CD
121, CD 134, & CD 162. The 121 tolls are found in a wide variety of dramatic
colors, whereas the other CD's have less color variation. R. Good, Jr insulators
are the first generation of insulators manufactured at a glass plant near
Denver, Colorado. Companies which succeeded R. Good, Jr were Western Flint Glass
(WFG) and Western Glass Manufacturing (WGM). This month, Crown Jewels features
the Good's. See page 27.
