CD-110.5 - NATIONAL INSULATOR CO.       Sold For: $154       Color: Light Aqua
Nicknamed the "Baby Corkscrew" because of the spiraling ridges above the wire ridge. Three 1/4" chips/flakes on the wire ridge and spiral, otherwise about very near mint. This is the variant without "segmented threads." For other National styles, see the CD 104 in lot 16 and the CD 110.6 "Large Corkscrew" in lot 5. No base damage, making the bold base embossing perfect and easy to read!

CD-110.5 - NEW ENG.TEL.& TEL.CO.       Sold For: $688       Color: Light Aqua EIN: [010]
This is the rare arc-embossed "NEW ENG.TEL & TEL CO." variant. The embossing is in a tight arc, making it easily readable in its entirety from the front. The piece has the expected "NAT.INSULATOR CO." with the three patent dates on the base. The corkscrew is in very good condition with damage limited to a 3/4" area of flaking at the top. Two 1/4" lower wire ridge chips and a 1/4" base flake. Not really all that bad for this style. For completeness, a small open bubble on the base removes the "T" in "INSULATOR". A great example!

CD-110.5 - NEW ENG.TEL.& TEL.CO. // NATIONAL       Sold For: $462       Color: Light Aqua
This is a very difficult style to acquire with "NEW ENG.TEL & TEL." embossed on the skirt and "NATIONAL INSULATOR CO." embossed on the base. See lot 30 for its CD 104 counterpart. A rare embossing which is especially hard to find in this amazing very, very near mint condition!

CD-110.5 - NATIONAL INSULATOR CO.       Sold For: $88       Color: Light Aqua
3/4" base flake removes most of "NAT" in the embossing. The insulator is base embossed "+NAT.INSULATOR CO.+/PAT.MAY.1.DEC.25.1883 JAN.1.OCT.7.1884." A couple of the patent dates refer to the detail of the spiral crown. A classic New England insulator with a twist!

CD-110.5 - NATIONAL INSULATOR CO.       Sold For: $154       Color: Light Aqua
Great condition! The base embossing is crisp and bold and contains various patents referring to the corkscrew and slotted pinhole attributes. For the larger CD 110.6 "corkscrew" style, see lot 24. The "baby corkscrew" is always popular!

CD-110.5 - NEW ENG. TEL. & TEL. CO. (Base) NAT. INSUL. CO.       Sold For: $418       Color: Light Green
A 3/8" flake at the top of the threads, otherwise at least very near mint. This is the much scarcer embossing style with "NEW ENG TEL.& TEL.CO." on the skirt and "NAT.INSUL.CO.+ / PAT.MAY 1. DEC.25.1883. JAN.1. OCT.7.1884" on the base. Some of the skirt embossing is hard to read. Compare this "regular" corkscrew with its big brother in lot 50. The Light Green coloration and the unusual embossing make this insulator quite uncommon and desirable!

Bill & Jill Insulators - Next Auction: Coming Soon

 
CD-110.5 - NATIONAL INSULATOR CO.       Sold For: $83       Color: Light Aqua
Two 1/4" base flakes affect the bottom of a couple of letters, and a 3/8" base flake removes most of "PAT". The wire ridges and corkscrew threading are prone to damage, but these are in wonderful condition, with only a very small flake at the top. A classic New England insulator with a twist! (#0962)

Bill & Jill Insulators - Next Auction: Coming Soon

 
CD-110.5 - NEW ENG.TEL.& TEL.CO.       Sold For: $297       Color: Light Aqua w/ Amber Swirls
A few flakes on the wire ridge and threads, some roughness on the wire ridge and groove which appear to be factory molding artifacts. Shows signs of having been buried, and may have been very lightly polished. This is the less common "straight line" embossing. A nice amber band runs from the base of the skirt, up to and around the threads, and back to the upper skirt. (#1156)

Bill & Jill Insulators - Next Auction: Coming Soon

 
CD-110.5 - NEW ENG.TEL.& TEL.CO.       Sold For: $209       Color: Light Aqua
{Segmented threads} Flake and a number of pings and dings on the upper wire ridge. The spiral itself is in great shape. The first line of the embossing is a little weak, but you can see it's the "straight line" embossing, which is harder to find! There is some light haze and minor etching, indicating the insulator was probably dug. The oval spot on the spiral is a closed bubble with white debris in it. Own a bit of New England history! (#1157)

Bill & Jill Insulators - Next Auction: Coming Soon

 
CD-110.5 - NATIONAL {Segmented threads} Light Green       Sold For: $506       Color: Light Green
A chip on the upper spiral; otherwise VNM. The glass flowed on the front skirt, pushing some of the embossing up to form an arc. That part of the embossing is a little weak, but it makes it a little unique. This is both a desirable Light Green color and has the straight line NEW ENG.TEL.& TEL.CO. embossing which is the rarest of all the CD 110.5 variants. See lot 25 and lot 28 for additional variations! (#1158)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
CD-110.5 - NATIONAL {Segmented threads} Light Aqua       Sold For: $143       Color: Light Aqua
Really good condition. A classic "corkscrew" with base embossing. See lot 27 and lot 28 for additional variations! (#1143)

---------------------------------------------------------------------------
 
CD-110.5 - NATIONAL Light Blue Aqua       Sold For: $286       Color: Light Blue Aqua
A chip on the lower wire ridge, a little roughness at the top of the corkscrew and a small patch of scuffing on the skirt. This is one of the less common base-embossed NATIONAL with NEW ENG.TEL.& TEL.CO. in an arc. See lot 25 and lot 27 for additional variations! (#1155)

CD-110.5 - NATIONAL       Sold For: $154       Color: Light Aqua w/ Amber Wisps
