Item: 1 Description: CD 317 Chambers (010) Aqua. Made by Hemingray, these were used as part of the Chambers lightning rod system. Question for you: How often do you visit the local antique shop in your area? Quit going in because they never have anything? Well, our consignor is glad he went into, yet again, this shop in Sisters, Oregon that is often visited by many insulator collectors. Because on the day he went in the shop, the owner had put out this insulator. He got it for a very reasonable, although not ridiculously low, price. View 1 shows the Chambers name; View 2 the 1871 embossing. View 3 is the classic profile. Grade B-Plus: View 4 shows an inch-long, narrow, sliver off the inside edge of the cable groove; along with a tiny additional nick. View 1, at the center of the base, shows an open bubble with some minor adjacent flaking. Has several shallow annealing lines as typical for an insulator of this size. Estimate: $900 - $1,100 Open: $700 Price realized: Not sold |
