Tin Telegraph Pole | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

Need help identifying who made this (have three), stamped tin telegraph pole, marked "Germany". The insulators are part of the stamping. Missing the base or can it have been part of a station?

Measures: 8.75" tall, 2.5" wide at insulator arm.

Thanks, Steve

Not sure, but looks like Bing, and probably others made one very similar if not the same.

Could have also been KBN BUB, Fandor or Kraus. I'm not sure if Marklin ever made a pole like that. Others should be able to nail the source down though.
