Doug MacGillvary ~ Porcelain Threadless Insulators

For those not familiar with porcelain threadless, there have been 23 different U-numbers assigned. (But it has been discovered that the U-978 is in fact threaded.) This doesn't mean that other styles don't exist, but if there are other styles, they have not been reported. Added to the pin type porcelain threadless is the porcelain block insulator, which dates back, at least, to 1848.
