     Insulators come in many colors and styles. Many embossings, like Hemingray, Brookfield, STAR, California, Dominion, and many others are available. Glass pintypes come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and Mold variants.
     Porcelain Insulators are also becoming very popular as well. Porcelain insulators date back as far as the glass insulators and some are very very rare. Some porcelain insulators are made from multiple parts to form the whole insulator. These are known as Multi-Part Insulators.

     Collecting Insulators is fun and very rewarding. Insulators are responsible for many of todays technologies, communications, railroad, and other forms of transportation. A lot of history is behind these relics and the collecting of them helps to preserve the history.
