Like the piece that just sold, this one is from my collection. This example is a bizarre orangey-pinkish "salmon" color, like no other California I have ever seen. Add to that, it has a yarn-thickness string of blue-aqua winding through it. Like the one that just sold, this one is a standout in any lineup. Photos says it all. This is a known never-altered piece. I found it myself at a different farm sale than the other piece, but out in the same wheat country area west of Spokane. The seller told me it and some other insulators were all salvaged around the farm when the power company installed new poles.

This piece is in excellent condition with a small dome peck being the most notable problem. Great condition, outstanding unique color, just a stunning California that is likely one-of-a-kind. $625 shipped in lower 48.
