WOW! What age is this?! O_O

This is a 220V lamp and it does work, as do the others, but it's really dim, probably since it's on 120V instead of 240V. This doesn't even put out any useable light, it just glows. The brand is "Gleichstrom" and it apears that it uses 3.5W per the base etch shown but I don't know about that...

Weird but awesome find!
@ xmaslightguy; thanks. I thought this one was a little odd too. At first i thought this lamp just had a thicker filament because it was 240V.
well, i guess that's why the lamp was so dim and flickery. It did look a bit undedriven. I don't want to push 240V though it and have the lamp die though so it'll just be an awesome display piece for now. it has a loose metal ball that rolls around inside that fits in the tip. is that mercury? is it supposed to vaporize because it doesn't on 120V...
