Insulator of the Month - HAVING A BLAST!
Reprinted from "Crown Jewels of the Wire", January 2004, inside front cover
Mike Randall says this glower is his favorite insulator. It's a CD 162 H.G.Co
in the (100) embossing style. The "OA" of the word PETTICOAT on the
reverse is embossed over the letters "AT". Mike claims to be a
"100% certified color nut". He collects various CD styles, but in
bright colors. With exceptionally light color, lots of dome glass, great
condition, and a neat embossing error...this piece exemplifies the insulators
Mike pursues. Mike says finding a new piece for his collection is "like
pulling a tooth on a non-medicated 500 pound Bengal Tiger, but the hunt sure is
a blast!"
