On one trip to Southern Georgia - circa 1970 - I was near Albany, GA and decided to hunt the railway telegraph lines toward the South East. I ended up on the Georgia and Florida Railway line East out of Moultrie, GA and Ellentown, Georgia. This line roughly follows 37 out of Moultrie. My notes indicate the line had three tiers which were mostly common with a moderate amount of aqua CD 145 and CD 133 H.G. Co. insulators. I hunted two sections of the line and found only one of the following:

CD-133 H.G. Co / Patent May 2 1883 - Front & Standard - Back in Yellow-Green with sharp DP's. It's not an expensive insulator in the scheme of things, but sure looks spectacular in my collection. I'll post a picture of the back. [604186039]
