comments
  The Glowing Crucifix Lamp is documented in an early Solex brochure, pictured here. In addition to Solex, the Birdseye Electric Co. also produced this bulb but omitted the mica disc which can been seen on the Solex bulb directly below the crucifix. A picture of the Birdseye version can be viewed here.
