I like those. But I always prefered the transparent-coloured bulbs, probably because we had these when I was a kid. I just love their crystalline look. Cool

Cool! yeah, I like those too especially the blinkers. the only problem is they tend to peel over time.

Thanx! I meant the transparent-colored ones Vince mentioned. The color is an outer coating that tends to peel when exposed to the weather.

In my opinion that gives a nice look to the lamp ^__^ But it does look kinda ugly when it's too much pealed off.

Vintage C-9 lights on my house

The cord is Noma from the 1940s. The bulbs are a mixture from the 50s, 60s and 70s. Mostly inside coated bulbs from Japan with a few GEs thrown in.
