<p>[QUOTE="Kevolee, post: 9728521, member: 2594"]Hi, I found these insulators in a bag at a thrift being sold as candle holders. I thought the outline of the state of Illinois was interesting and a little research showed they are electrical insulators and made by the Illinois Electric Porcelain Company in Macomb Illinois. I find conflicting evidence of what era they may have been made in and what the exact type of insulators they are. Each is around 4 3/8" tall. The lingo can be confusing. I would really be grateful for any help and ideas on these.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]473172[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]473173[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]473174[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]473175[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
