The Powerlite looks funny mounted on the thin pole and short arm, anyways I think this model was introduced in the '60s from the pics I've seen of them.

Yeah it does, its not surprising the pole fell over, that fixture must weight at least 70 pounds Shocked

Yeah it certainly looks heavy, it's even bigger than the B2255 and has a bigger refractor?

ashame it fell over thats a really nice fixture. Sad

Yeah its a shame, there was one at the other end of the parking lot which fell over a few years before this one, and there is still one mounted on the building out back, if the building ever comes down I'll try to get it for sure Very Happy
And Joseph I'm not totally sure but the refractor might be the same as the B2255's but the fixture sure is bigger Shocked
