GE Standard F14T12
1950s! This lamp was on a Fler-O-Ray fixture with a glass lens covering kinda like a half-piper. It have been under a shelf in the basement unaffected except an occasional paint splatter and the EARTHQUAKE we had in August for 60 YEARS! Then last night some morons that were working on getting the dryer vent installed in the basement smashed the glass lens to pieces. Then for some moronic idea the guy decided to throw out the tube in a half empty dumpster!

I have decided to find the tube and any of the lens if any left. Found the tube intact and working as you see here. Found one piece of the lens and couldn't find any more. I decided that I have HAD it with these morons and decided to remove the fixture and stash it in my lab. The lamp and starter that is. The fixture went to Jace.
