Sold Separately, one light per purchase

Circa 1940's Quadrangle Vapor Proof Light with a beautiful, flawless Globe.

Removed from an old 4-H building in Nebraska in favor of new florescent lighting and thankfully rescued by a quick-thinking electrician, these gorgeous and amazing lights are being offered for sale individually. I presently have two available in this "A+" condition. Several other are available that have a few chips on the shades.

The lights were disassembled, cleaned an inspected. The two-piece cast aluminum tops were media blasted, primed and painted a very original looking gray. The tops are quite detailed and posses an architectural look and feel. The big 18" shades are in remarkable condition, not showing their age in the least. The huge 8" globes are flawless. These are among the most desirable lights I have ever owned. It's been a pleasure restoring them to their original glory.

The large asbestos gaskets were removed and replaced with new, non-asbestos gaskets. You don't want to leave the original gaskets in the lights...very dangerous.

The mogul base socket was cleaned and inspected. A 1-1/4" machined extension was then installed resulting in the bulb places in the reflector sweet-spot which assures the most efficient operation. The top was then re-installed using brass screws and fiber washers. Please note the slight separation of the shade from the fitter using the fiber washers. This allows heat to escape the porcelain shade. I will include an easily removable adapter so the buyer may choose to use standard medium base household bulbs, the best of both worlds. .

The swivel hanger is an original Quad hanger. The down-rod is 11 inches long and is black. I can substitute that with a 3 or 6 inch down-rod free of charge. You may also choose between black or galvanized pipe. If no other choice is made during check-out or soon after, the light will ship with the 11" black down-rod.

As always, no expense and no amount of labor was spared during the restoration of these amazing vintage lights.

I tend to each and every one as if I was restoring it for public exhibition...I'm extremely proud of my work, and these rank at the top of my list.

Light will be shipped in pieces to insure safe arrival; re-assembly is EASILY accomplished by purchaser.

The buyer will contribute 25 towards the shipping cost of the first light. Additional lights ship for only $15 each

I suggest that all electrical items be checked and installed by a professional electrician.

Please feel free to ask questions prior to offerding.

I'm a very fast and careful shipper. These lights will be packed very well.

Thank you for visiting the original
