Chesapeake Bay Insulator Club Show - New Find
Reprinted from "Crown Jewels of the Wire", August 1989, page 12
The most exciting "finds" dug to date from the Brookfield dump by
Alonzo Carver had their first public showing. The new owner Bob McElvaney showed
two pieces which are embossed CLIMAX in large 3/8" letters. Two separate
pieces were found and, although badly damaged, there was enough of each piece to
reconstruct the insulator. John and Carol McDougald sent the drawing and photo
to N.R. Woodward for the assignment of a new CD number. It is CD 184. The
pictures taken would not reproduce well, but the drawing will have to do until a
close-up of the new insulator is taken at the National Show.
