(1) 30s Benjamin 16" Porcelain Industrial Green Barn UL Light VTG Gas Station Bs

Description: (1) 30s Benjamin 16" Porcelain Industrial Green Barn UL Light VTG Gas Station BsNEW UL LISTED SOCKETSWITH A GROUND WIRE FROM A 1929 BENJAMIN LIGHTING CATALOG SOLD INDIVIDUALLY, ONE LIGHT PER PURCHASEThese classic green barn/industrial lights are the perfect size for most applications, 16 inch diameter. The rolled and sealed lower rim has a wonderful black band baked right into the porcelain. These were among the highest priced green standard bowl reflectors when originally manufactured in the 1920's - 1940's. They were engineered to be upper-end and they truly are.This group is in "B" condition. This means they are NOT without flaws. Possibly rim chips, maybe a small chip in the field of the bottom, perhaps some scratches or staining, nothing major at all. I actually have this group labeled as "B+" on the shelf. Just not quite "A" condition. In order to allow the light to function as designed, I've added a 3/4 inch extension to the new socket fitter. This allows the bulb to extend an additional 3/4 inch into the shade for better illumination. Today's bulbs are far shorter than they were when this light was manufactured. The extension is also perfect for the use of LED bulbs. (Don't let your bulbs get lost in the neck). And last but not least, the machined extension is designed to provide a good, solid ground, my commercial and safety conscious buyers LOVE this option....pass your inspections!! The diameter of the shade is 16 inches. From the bottom of the shade to the point that the down-rod screws in is 9.5". The complete light is 16.5" tall. The newer down-rods are 6" long. Other rod lengths available for the asking are 3" and 12". The wiring will accommodate up to a 36" down-rod. If you need longer wiring, send me a note. If no other choices are specified during checkout or an email soon after, the lights will ship with 6" down-rods. The newer UL listed swivel hangers allow the lights to hang plumb, (vertical) even if your ceiling is not level, (horizontal) and also allows the lights to resist damage from accidental, (or purposeful), bumps and bruises. The first light ships for only $23. Additional lights ship for just $5 each.These lights would do well outdoors as well as inside. The socket is nicely protected with new factory cut cork gaskets. These lights are the perfect light for gooseneck mounting, not included. Please feel free to ask questions prior to bidding.I'm a very fast and careful shipper. These lights will be packed very well.
