Story
Hi Andrew Glad the CD 160 arrived safe and you're pleased with it. This insulator came from the Town of Sault St. Marie in northern Ontario. I was given 2 boxes of insulators from a girl at work who is from the Sault and her father had them. The boxes were in rough shape at the newspaper the insulators were wrapped in was from the 1980's. As I began to unwrap them, I quickly noticed all the insulators except for about 4 were CD 160 Brookfield's. You don't see them too often in Ontario so I was surprised to see about 20 of them all together in these old boxes. I was really hoping for some early Canadian pieces which have come out of the Sault area! Most of them were very plain dark aqua. I have 2 more that I'm trying to get decent pictures of. One has a zillion micro bubbles in it and the other is a subtle dark aqua / amber mix. Nothing great but you can definitely see the two tone. Anyway, if your interested I can send you pictures and you can let me know if your interested in them. Thanks again for the purchase Brett
