HERE'S A VERY SCARCE HARDLY EVER FOUND INSULATOR. I HAVE BEEN COLLECTING INSULATORS FOR OVER 50 YEARS AND ONE OF THE HARDEST PIECES TO FIND IS A LYNCHBURG INSULATOR IN CRYSTAL CLEAR.I SAW ONE ABOUT 35 YEARS AGO WHILE VISITING MARION MILLHOLLAND.
HE HAD A LYNCHBURG CD 154 NO 44 IN CRYSTAL CLEAR IN HIS COLLECTION. I KNEW IT WAS DIFFERENT AT THAT TIME, AND WANTED TO BUY IT, BUT IT WAS NOT FOR SALE. SO INSTEAD I THOUGHT TO MYSELF THAT I WOULD LOOK FOR ANOTHER AT THE VARIOUS SHOWS I WAS ATTENDING AND I WAS SURE I WOULD FIND ANOTHER EVENTUALLY. I ASKED EVERYONE I KNEW ABOUT IT AND NO ONE HAD EVER HEARD OF ONE, AND TO THIS DAY I HAVE NEVER SEEN ANOTHER.
THEN ABOUT TEN YEARS AGO I MET A GUY WHO HAD A FEW OF THESE LYNCHBURGS FOR SALE. THEY ARE THE ONLY ONES I HAD EVER SAW IN CRYSTAL CLEAR. THEY WERE FOUND ON A TELEPHONE IN SOUTH CAROLINA AND HE HAD THE ONLY ONES I HAVE EVER SEEN.
I ONLY GOT 9 ITEMS AND THIS IS ONE OF THOSE. LYNCHBURGS ARE KNOWN FOR BEING FOUND IN A NUMBER OF COLORS. GREENS, STRAW, PINK, BLUE, AQUA, AND MOST OF THOSE COLORS ARE FAIRLY COMMON MOSTLY BECAUSE LYNCHBURG MADE A LOT OF INSULATORS WHILE THEY WERE IN BUSINESS. THEY WERE LOCATED IN LYNCHBURG VIRGINIA AND WERE ALL OVER THE SOUTH.
TRY FINDING ONE IN CRYSTAL CLEAR THE JUST DON'T EXHIST.
SO WHAT I HAVE IS A CD 112 EMBOSSED, "
LYNCHBURG No 31 "
BACK " L IN OVAL LOGO ''MADE IN U.S.A."
IN CLOSE TO MINT CONDITION CRYSTAL CLEAR.
