Letters to the Editor

Reprinted from "INSULATORS - Crown Jewels of the Wire", February 1984, page 31

Dear Dora,

Just a line to let you know I still enjoy your publication.

In Nov. 1983 C.J. Luther Gunn had a drawing of a what's-it. Well, if it is square in shape, it is identical to eight of these that I have. Four are light SCA. They are legs off of battery cabinets. The cabinets that mine came from were made of oak and had drawers to hold the batteries. The voltages were of various amounts and used for various purposes.

If anyone wants more information, I would be glad to inform, if they would write and enclose a stamped self addressed envelope.
Thanks again for an enjoyable year and many more ahead.

Mrs. Harned,

Enclosed are pictures of two wooden insulators. Both are threaded on inside. Not much is known of their history except that they supposedly came from San Francisco about the time of the earthquake. Can you help me find out about them or put me in touch with someone. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
