Hi, my name is Ross Baird and I live in Ft. Worth, Texas. As you can see I like to collect unusual insulators. I have been a collector for over thirty years and I am always looking to buy or trade. Should you be interested in selling, or just talking, you can contact me at nsulator@aol.com I look forward to hearing from you!

(Center Photo) This is a CD 141.9 telegraph insulator that has been found in Pennsylvania and Indiana. The embossing is on the base EMMINGER'S PAT FEBY 20th 1872. This insulator was found in central Pennsylvania at an estate sale in 1996. A bottle collector found this on a table full of juice reamers that were for sale. Ever since that time I have called this the "juice reamer insulator"!
(Right Photo) This is a CD 158.2 telegraph insulator embossed on the inner skirt BOSTON BOTTLE WORKS PATENT APPL'D FOR. This insulator came out of New York in the 1970's. Most Boston Bottle Work's insulators come in aqua, so finding a colored example is extremely difficult.
