Large Antique Edison Mazda 2-Sided Glass Panel Dealer Lamp Display Exceptional

  

If you're an uncompromising collector of antique technology, make sure to check out all my listings after you look at this one. I don't think you'll find a better, broader or more balanced assortment of technical antiques anywhere -- hundreds of listings each year, almost all of them featuring eye-popping "gee whiz" gadgetry in exceptional original condition.

Here's a beautiful vintage in-store electric lamp display for Edison Madza light bulbs. The display is original throughout, with no restoration, no repainting, no touch-ups. It was manufactured in the late by the M.

Metzger Company in Chicago, and it comes with an array of good filament light bulbs that can be displayed in the fixture. Measures approximately 22" wide by 7" deep by 13 high. Reverse-painted glass panels secured in a metal housing, with test sockets (unwired) located on either side. Some minor flaking on the panels and wear to the faux wood painted housing, but this example is so much nicer than other survivors, there's really no comparison.

The interior low-watt antique bulb is safe for the safe display, but the illumination is minimal. I'll include all of the other antique light bulbs you see in the photos, but I'd advise against using any of the high-watt lamps for internal illumination, as the heat they generate will potentially harm the artwork on the interior. Please look at the pictures and consider them an integral part of description. Them for more than 25 years.
