Half pipes,

You have to take them down yourself and take them away.
You have to furnish your own ladders or lift.
No shipping available.
What a deal.

And to think I used to pull this kind of stuff out of trash cans for free when I was a kid.
(admittedly that has been a long while ago)


Wow look at this.
It might go way up, but looks like NOS to me.
These look like the real deal.
I am into T17s and PGs or I would bid on this for sure.

Update: They went for $305 with 10 bids.
I thought they may have went higher seeing how old they were.
I hope they went to a good home as they look NOS to me.

Hi Larry,

Just wanted to let you know how much I appreciate you're helping us here & unselfishly  showing us auctions that normally some of us would miss out on ,

You are awesome !!!!

The fluorescent bulbs you mention in the salesmen's sample are lovingly reffered to as side etchers ,Anyone here will tell you side etchers are early and and these are right out of the 1930s   Yes, you are right the auction will end on the HIGH note

Hope you score a nice T-17 fluorescent fixture this year , You deserve it !!!!

Kindest Regards,

Roger,  

Thanks Roger.

I hope someone here wins them so they will have a good home.

I have learned so much here.
If I want to know about something, I just do a search here and a wealth of information becomes available.
A treasure trove of lighting information.

Larry
