Item Description
7/8" dia. Chrome plated w/brass threads. c. 1904. Likely produced for Christmas tree lights, potentially to go on the front of a locomotive in a train set or perhaps intended for use in another toy of the era. Scattered dots of light brown toning affecting image but otherwise only wear consistent w/light use. Fine. We aren't 100% certain how this bulb was intended to be used but we are certain of its scarcity as it's only the third we've encountered in our 52 years.
