One small bubble in the glass is observed. Slight blemish on the LI of California. Made in the United States, this insulator is a piece of history that would make a great addition to any collection. It is perfect for display or as a conversation starter. The insulator is a must-have for anyone interested in vintage collectibles. The California Glass Insulator Company existed from 1912-1916. In 1916 it was destroyed by a flood.I am sure many of you have seen the LA River which is a huge concrete channel with a little stream that goes down the middle. It ends in Long Beach which is where the California Glass Company used to be. The reason the LA River exists is that were huge floods that did a lot of damage . This would be runoff from the mountains and hills surrounded Los Angeles. The LA River was constructed to channel the runoff to the ocean. All this because the California Glass Company was destroyed by a flood.
