Clear Glass Insulators Armstrong’s DP1 Double Petticoat Smoky Lot of 3 by TidBitz
12,00 USD
These clear glass insulators are made by Armstrong and are DP1. They are the double petticoat style. One is a bit more smoky colored than the other 2.
The insulators are all significant Armstrong’s DP1 and No 1. The backs are all marked Made in USA and marked as follows:
21 52:.
26 52:.
27 52:.
They measure 4 & quot; & quot; high x 3 1/2 & quot; in size across the bottom.
These antique glass insulators have indications of age and years of being in usage out in the aspects. There is some corrosion between the petticoats on one. One has ding on dome, under the 2nd petticoat above the base, and on the bottom. It has some bubbles on the within the bottom recessed area and a couple of small scratches around the skirt.
The one with the rust has chip on the within the skirt.
The last one has a ding on the skirt, near the A in Armstrong.
I was informed that the dings are from people shooting these with bb weapons.
Otherwise, there are not other chips or fractures. I have actually cleaned these to the finest of my ability.
Despite their couple of concerns, these are still very collectible and ready to repurpose into insulator lamps, lights, candle light holders, paper weights, garden/ porch decoration or book ends.
