Title: Radial Waves in Nevada
Post by: Nevada Willis on March 25, 2011, 04:34:52 PM

Here are a couple of nearby radial wave lamps still in service in Nevada.  It seems like some of the small towns have kept one old street light in service for historical purposes.

When the weather clears I'll try to get some good zoom camera shots.

i've always loved those radial wave lights. Jamestown RI is full of these and admiral hat lights.

Nice finds, the only radial wave light I know of is in a electrical display. I don't think any of them are left in use here.
