Albanite, a word on Edison spark plugs I've been curious about since 2007 when I saw it for the 1st time, just 6 months after starting this blog!

 I posted this photo in a gallery of the Hotel Del Coronado laundry delivery Cadillac https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2007/04/cadillac-with-hotel-del-logo-on-side.html 

Occasionally I take a look to see if anyone has the answer online yet, and finally someone added the info to the internet. 

It's still surprising to me that only 25 years after the internet kicked off in it's current form, people treat it like it's always been around, and that it has everything there is to know. But it's still in it's infancy, and facts, photos, and information are still being added and uploaded every day. 

Anyway, Andrew commented on some forum, that Albanite is " was a trade name for the insulator material used by the company. The clay was mined from a specific site, and once baked into hardened porcelean, provided what they perceived as a special anti-fouling, superior insulative material for the core of the spark plug."
