William Posted February 9, 2022 Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 Are these by chance affiliated with the Alley/Pennsboro insulators? Happened upon them by chance today, got them for a buck apiece. I had to check out Stephen and Ron's video too compare and they are similar with the exception of mine have 3 "ribs" where the ones Ron showcased had 4. I think the green one top middle (in the video) had 3? Love too hear some feedback on these! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A corkscrew pattern. two large alleys on each end, I have some like yours I also use for marble display. I bought the same ones you have before I found the Alley type. A pic showing both the same insulator you have w/ some Jabos in it and the Alley insulator on the Left. Uh Oh !! I used up my West Va. Wednesday pics ..... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

William Posted February 9, 2022 Author Report Share Posted February 9, 2022 Darn! That's ok, I will call them keepers nonetheless. I was pretty excited when Tyler (Patty's son) came up to me and said "Are these like Ron's?" The kid sure has an eye because I didn't see them. Glad I got him started in this hobby! I keep badgering him to join here and benefit from the wealth of knowledge. He did find his first slag piece last weekend (a Westmoreland purple and white resting rabbit dish). Yesterday he nailed his first couple Akroware pieces too. He's definitely hooked! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stephenb Posted February 10, 2022 Report Share Posted February 10, 2022 My local glass hoarder buddy just showed me these a few weeks ago . He had about a dozen more glass ones but wouldn’t budge when I asked if he would sell any . 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
