They aren't antique. And aren't worth hardly anything either.

Nice finds donb0078! The insulator looks like a multi-wire insulator used for electric fences...

Yup that's an old fence type insulator. Really no value on those at all, but the wire would be worth pulling out and taking in if it's all copper.

turns out they are for old cable wires and the wires (most of them have steal alloy) they came from 60's -70's

true they aren't worth much but better than change in parking lot or playground :D got about 5lbs of copper though and the rest I took to the dump as no one wanted it that cost 6 bucks so I got my gas money back at least and helped clean environment hehe maybe lil change too!! and thinking someone will want the insulators have 34 even at .25 should re-coupe so all in all it was a great day!
