Story
From the collection of a retired NYSEG lineman. Had been contacted from ICON by someone whose father had a few insulators, we never managed to get together. Just the other day he contacted me again, and since Sam and the kids were gone, I went over that day. Nice assortment of stuff -- some very common, some $5-$20 stuff, mostly porcelain. Went back the next day with my porcelain guides, and picked up 4 of them. Was happiest with the U-241B in white -- in spite of the condition, it fit my baby signal collection! The others are probably for trade.
