Glass insulators used on street light A-frame bracket

Glass insulators used on street light A-frame bracket
1634 W Washington St., Bluffton, Indiana

One of the few poles in Bluffton, Indiana that uses glass insulators on the old guy-wire A-frame bracket on the street light pole.

The glass insulators on the primary are the typical CD 230 Hemingray 512 insulators. The insulator on the A-frame bracket closest to the pole is a CD 162 Hemingray the other a CD 164 Star insulator.

Thanks! I think there are about 4 or 5 of these poles in Bluffton with the glass insulators on the bracket. I have one more shot of these but hoping to photograph the rest when the trees drop their leaves.
