I have about 50 something insulators!! I saw them on downed poles they were replacing along Hwy 44 outside of St. James, Mo. This was a few years ago. I stopped and pulled them off the poles. Little did I realize that some of the poles had poison ivy on them! YIKES!
They are certainly interesting!
Thanks for this great thread!

That's an attractive stamp,
has a hint of Norman Rockwell.

The Flag bit confuses,
they putting it up?
taking it down?

Top stamp is from Plateflaw posted earlier.

South Africa commemorating the centenary of the International Telecommunication Union, or I.T.U., in 1965. Up until 1934 I.T.U. had stood for International Telegraph Union, when the name was changed.

Turkey 1452 from 1959. I don't have a scan, but it has one of the most direct views of a telephone pole I've seen on a stamp.

Thanks New12 Collector,
(just a dig in the ribs, as much as we love you guys, there
are other countries in the world apart from the US :)
Some of us, who like a challenge, and need frustrating, use the Stanley Gibbons catalogue Numbers.

You need to say Scott and perhaps the year :) Oops

This the one to which you refer?

Yep. Sorry, I was thinking of something other than stamps. I'll try to remember to do that in the future.

I thought that the image on stamps of insulators is a rare event. Power lines symbolize the development, progress, and on stamps of the USSR was even too much, so the show is not all:
