The weird old stuff you find on eBay...

Interesting. Not really sure what to make of them.

Looks like a collection of lamp shades to me. Would be an interesting top if we posted pictures of our oldest fixture/device... I'll take a look around my office- must be something disturbing there somewhere! :-)

They almost look some of those really funky footlights, but they're a mystery to me.

Maybe by "theatre built in the thirties" he means "these instruments were taken from the lobby." Ha.

Interesting

I'm also thinking architectural fixtures.

The lamp orientation is wrong for footlights.

Definately an Architectual. Notice they say," fit on an octagonal box".
That's the old school 4x4 box. What scares me is someone might actually buy them and try to use them.....

Lol, it reminds me of this really old followspot that the youth ministry at my church somehow scavenged from some school before I came along. It is held together by some really old gaff tape and some duct tape. I've been trying to get rid of it, by the only way that I can think of is getting a new one, but those cost like $300, and we don't have room in our budget for that right now.

Why not try to fix it, Epoxy instead of gaff tape maybe?

If it wasn't so expensive and the fact that I already have one, I would sooo be all over this.

I like how the lights in the first one are "authentic"

I think I have one of those kicking around in storage too.
