The following post shows the CD 154 Whitall Tatum No.1 which was used in large numbers on the Central of Georgia Railway telegraph lines. It came in a various colors including: shades of aqua blue to greenish; sun colored amethyst (SCA) (i.e. pink, lilac, purple etc.) and sun colored amber (i.e. peach, honey, amber). The purple CD 154 WT No. 1 was the first insulator that I had ever found (1968) and was the reason that I was hooked on insulator hunting hobby. In subsequent posts, I will discuss this insulator distribution in Georgia and glass chemistry using Whithall Tatum glass production as my model.
