Wraps
New York
New York. Wraps. Very Good. Unusual trade catalogue with its three pages of mounted color samples of tinted or colored light bulbs. N.d., circa 1930. 8vo. 23 by 15 cm. 8 pp. The bulbs were marketed for use in expositions, theatres, churches, clubs, signs, marquees, restaurants, homes, show-window reflectors, pageants, stage lighting, signals, stores, factories, etc. -- in other words, every conceivable place and use. While we have no opinion about the product itself, we find the catalogue's color plate pages to be a visual delight. Scarce, with a single copy found on OCLC First Search, at Columbia U. Not found in online catalogues of either the Hagley or Winterthur. Condition: narrow dampstain along part of front cover edge. Light wear besides.
