N. R. Woodward
Reprinted from "INSULATORS - Crown Jewels of the Wire", November 1971, page 11
Below Is pictured the man who originated CD (Consolidated Design) numbers and
is the author of "The Glass Insulator in America". His book is a must
for every serious collector who wants to trade, buy or sell by CD numbers.
Consolidated Design denotes the shape and size of an insulator, and Mr.
Woodward's book also shows the companies that manufactured certain insulators
(or CD #'s). The first part of "The Glass Insulator In America" is
devoted to the history of such companies that manufactured glass insulators.
Years of study and research have gone into this book, and we, the collectors,
benefit from it. For the benefit of all the new subscribers and others that
might have forgotten, Mr. Woodward also offered to answer, to the best of his
knowledge, your questions concerning threaded glass insulators. Send your
questions to INSULATORS Crown Jewels of the Wire, and we will forward them to
him to answer.
