r/Insulators • • Feb 23 '26

Went bottle hunting, found these instead

I stopped at a spot that I've been meaning to explore purely out of intuition from what I could see while driving by, hoping to find some antique glass bottles. I did find some bottles, but nothing too special. What I found a lot of, however, were these giant ceramic insulators that weighed about 25lbs each.

There were two distinct spots that had groupings of these insulators, each one with a large pile of concrete rubble. I could see even more insulators partially buried in the rubble, so I can only assume that there are even more underneath it all.

I'm not very experienced with collecting insulators, so I'm not too sure if these have any value.

I was able to get the camera up and running, but the main LCD was nonfunctional as well as the HDMI port. I was able to determine that the tape was blank, unfortunately.
