    A 1910 - 1915 Macomb (error made it look to say Maoomb) U-244 (we collectors assign porcelain insulators a U-number) dry-press insulator from The Illinois Electric Porcelain Co.

    Albeit damaged, it's a good insulator that's harder to find. I've had it for awhile now.

      Very cool! I've never seen one like this. Did you gig it out?

      LOL. I wish. I have many porcelain insulators, though.
      For example, a favourite gifted to me:
