This one is tought to let go of, because I love the milk swirls. But I am collecting more and more CREBBs, so some good insulators have to leave to make room. I have not seen many insulators in my 20 years of collecting that had milk strings as pronounced as this one. What makes this a specmine is two large cracks and a smaller one from the wire groove. A double dome (white marks) impact caused one crack that crosses the insulator from one crown to the opposite crown. There is a larger crack that starts at one crown and extends almost to the base on the opposite side. There is no glass missing. I am selling it at a little less than I paid.

The color is very blue aqua. I believe this would qualfy for "montreal blue".
