comments
  Royal Ediswan DC operated Pointolite arc lamp fitted with a special three contact Edison medium screw base. This particular sized lamp was specially suited for small projection and microscopic work. There is a glass deflector within the lamp that is used to collect disintregrated tungsten particles. This feature was patented Feb.13th, 1919 by the Edison-Swan Electric Co. and P. Freedman (British Patent #142,574).
