An incandescent schoolhouse fixture is defined as a fixture that holds a large milk glass shade that was manufactured between the 1920s and 1940s.

They look like these:

Does anyone on LG collect such fixtures?

Yes I do. I have 8 complete sets of these pendant fixtures mare of nickel plated brass and glass shades from around the 1930/40/50s. Fife of them are going to a collector in New York. The rest I sell locally or I keep them in my collection.

I don’t have any in my collection (unless the ceiling fan light kits count :D) but I do like them very much.

Don't have any actual schoolhouse fixtures, but do have several 3" and 4" globe fixtures with schoolhouse style globes on them.

Have a schoolhouse style globe but not the correct fitter. It uses a 4" fitter and I though it used a 3.5" fitter when I bought it.
