Large 900 Series Matchless Star Rebulbing Service
« on: January 03, 2019, 11:15:18 am »
Hello Group.

I have been collecting the large 900 series 1930s Matchless Stars for years. I have had collegues ask me how to rebulb them. I mean how can you enjoy them if they're not illuminated? After years of painstaking search, I found a manufacturing facility which can supply me with the correct wattage bulb to relamp these stars.

It's important to know that I am in favor or keeping things as they were in antique Christmas lighting. The bulbs that I have had made are similar in structure, diameter, color temperature and wattage to keep your large Matchless Stars operating.

Because this rebulbing requires several hours of service with the utmost attention to detail to keep each star original in appearance, I can do each at $25 with free return shipping. I would not need the crystal for my service. Those can be detached and kept by the qowner. All I would need is the ring base.

I can be reached with a PM or at zozman50@hotmail.com
