Wow Shocked That NEMA label looks great. I like the model 13 it is affixed too as well Smile

The internals of this fixture were in rough shape when I got it. I had a busted up 113 and used parts from that the repair this one.

Looks great! I matched the font to the late 80s to mid 90s Thomas & Betts lights so this is a clone of an American Electric tag, but I didn't realize your 13 had the older font, so this isn't a match for the original. Still an AE font though!

Yep I designed the label as well as a gold 15 for my OV-15 TuDor and a few red 32s for my M-400A2 and the second M-400A2 and Joe had them printed on blank bumper stickers as part of a trade we did when I went to Canada on vacation a couple years ago.

I'm fine with the way this looks, it's just cool to see the numbers again lol.

What age is this?

I have no clue, Mike and I were trying to figure it out. You can no longer make any of the numbers out on the ballast. The ballast does have the welded tabs to mount to the housing.

If it did have the old nema tag, I'd say no earlier than around 1976.

Had a metallic NEMA tag. Mine is from 1977 and has a separate bracket versus welded on. Mine has the ballast mounted to one side and has the heatsink on one side and not the other, making mine asymmetrical from the top. This one has the welded on tabs, making me think it's newer than mine since the 113s have welded brackets.

Yeah, those from 1977 are a pretty early design, the glass refractors were still the earlier square shape like those on Unistyle 175s.

Mine has an acrylic refractor. The original polycarbonate refractor was browned out so he replaced it for me. I'd love to get one of those rounder glasses though. My Unistyle from Tony actually has a Pyrex refractor, which is shaped a bit like the square GE plastic lens. It's the original refractor too, since it has MCGRAW-EDISON embossed on the rim. They must've used two different refractors. I like the Pyrex one better myself. Here's the Unistyle.
