U-816B LOCKE 23550 (porcelain insulator) Color: Chocolate Brown Description: A large piece that is 11" in diameter and 7" tall. Incuse marked "LOCKE / 23550". Excellent condition. There is a lead insert in the pinhole. These insulators were used in the Midwest. This is an odd piece that looks like a combination of a suspension insulator on the bottom and a power station bushing on the top! Given it has a pinhole, it is clear it was designed to be a pintype insulator. This is one piece that will stand out in your collection! [NIA] 100% of the net proceeds will be donated to the NIA.
