Here's a G.N.W.TEL.CO. CD 145 in a nice crisp steel blue colour with a lot more character than is typical. This one is the [010] EIN with the "thin print" embossing that can also be found in various purple shades. It has a nice fine amber wisp that snakes throughout the front skirt. It also has some fizzy/milky/carbon swirls that run throughout the rear skirt and somewhat into the front. Its inner skirt is also a sad sight, with a major underpour that causes it to nearly disappear in one spot. Lastly, it has quite a dose of straw marks on the left side and rear skirts.

Condition is great on this example, with only some wire groove rubbing.

I'm now asking $35 USD plus shipping for this piece. I'm always happy to trade for early Canadian glass or Canadian-made porcelain insulators. I accept PayPal, or personal cheque from any member of ICON or any collector with whom I have dealt before. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or for more photos, and look through my other items or unsold sales stock to combine shipping on items.
