A new article has been posted thanks to information submitted by collector Ray Weinstein. The article pictorially outlines the development of Edison/GE lamps from 1879 through 1914 which will help collectors accurately date early Edison lamps. This is the only site update, but more articles are currently being drafted and will be posted and noted here when time permits.

for trade! |
Trade offers are being considered on the lamp pictured below. This is a historic English Lane Fox lamp with an intact hand written identification label by Latimer Clark, Muirhead & Co. that is dated 1882. The lamp is rated for 20 candlepower at 44 volts. The vegetable filament is supported by two large drilled carbon cylinders and secured using carbon Indian ink. The filament and exhaust tip are fully intact, and with the exception of one missing electrical lead which has been cut at the glass pinch, the lamp is in perfect condition. For anyone interested in this early lamp, I'm seeking another lamp of similar age and value. Feel free to contact me with any questions pertaining to this lamp.
