Step into the electrifying history of utility with this collection of five Hemingray glass insulators! These sparkling relics once safeguarded telegraph and power lines, serving as unsung heroes of communication and electrical infrastructure. Included are various shapes and colors, from deep aqua to clear glass, proudly bearing the iconic Hemingray embossing. Not only are these pieces functional works of art, but they also feature embossed model numbers, offering a window into their production lineage. Perfectly imperfect with minor manufacturing quirks, this lot captures the charm of early industrial craftsmanship. Don’t miss your chance to grab a piece of technological history!
