Plucked a nice old insulator today ( New Pics )

[Sandmaniac]

Embossed " W. BROOKFIELD 45 CLIFF ST. N.Y. on one side.
On the other it reads JAN. 25TH 1870
This is a real early one. The only problem I have with these is figuring out the color.
Any ideas ?

That is a nice one. I can't help you with the color though. That is a tough one.

Nice insulator. SWR could probably tell you more about it. I would call it "light aqua" maybe.

Here's a couple more pics without the light not directly behind it. It's impossible to get a good shot of the embossment in the pics. I am using my mag glass to pick up the words. I can just make out the PAT above the date but I don't see any number above that. Which means to me that there is not one there or it could be to faded to read. No number on the other side either. Oh well, tough to tell. It does look a little more on the green side though in these pics.
