In the past several months I was able to find some more interesting insulator related match book covers I thought you might like to see. It takes a lot of searching and luck to find these but I enjoy looking at them every day. Sorry about the photo quality. One of these days I'm going to have to find another better camera. From top, left to right: P&S Turnlocks (Pass and Seymour), Appelton Electric Co., Line Material Co. Round Wound Coils, Oliver Iron & Steel Co. Janco Electric Mfg. Co. 2nd Row: Gulford Creasote Co. (Tele Poles),Armstrongs Linolium Division (Armstrong Cork Co.), Hubbard & Co. Owens Illinoise Duraglass Onized, I.W.Hynd Co. Dongan Electric Mfg. Co., Last Row: Crescent Wire & Rope Co., Terrell Electric Co. Columbus Wood Preserving Co. (Bridges, Fences, Telephone Poles). Love the graphics on these old match covers. Why don't we have advertising like this anymore. I remember these more than I would a commercial etc. But maybe that's just me.
