Crown Jewels at the Smithsonian Institute
Reprinted from "Crown Jewels of the Wire", September 2005, page 4
Art work by Terry Morin was featured on the cover of the June issue of Crown
Jewels. Workers at the Smithsonian Institute liked the art so much, they
incorporated the June issue into their insulator display (below). It seems
Quincy, the insulator-hugging opossum shown on June's back cover with a CD 151
NATCO in peacock blue, has become a favorite character for both collectors and
non-collectors alike.

Terry's artwork was part of a profile of insulator collector Joe Egerer. Joe
wrote (see envelope below) that several collectors called in response to the
article, and that some had even stopped by to visit his own insulator museum.
