Heres my first American 400w medium pressure mercs! GE A-H1s
|
Can't believe this ebay seller had so many of them, but its cool that plenty of collectors could get their hands on these at affordable prices. The first two on the left are post Mazda, made in 3/49 and 12/49. The one on the right is an older Mazda model, made in 8/43. These things look like they were made yesterday, and man they have lots of mercury! Will light one this weekend. I have had a couple European medium pressure mercs and a GE 250w H2 lamp for a while, so these GE A-H1s will add nicely to my existing collection of these historic mercury lamps.

Well, enjoy yours! How about lighting the Mazda one into a period-correct Form 109? (If I remember you told you had one, right?)
The seller Cyndee$Attic used to buy up all of the AR-1 and Neon lamps on ebay and resell them at double-triple the price.
Well personally I wouldn't buy them if the person who bought ten decides to sell them later on for a few times the original price.
