Description

This is a very beautiful red glass lens made by Guide Lamp Co.  It is in perfect condition with a tiny bit of gasket material remaining in small sections of the rim.  The rim is SOLID and will form a perfect seal with any gasket, etc. after cleaning.
The dimensions are: Outside diameter of 6-5/8 inches (measured with a caliper). The inside diameter of the "face" of the lens that would show through the bezel is 6-1/4 inches.  This lens fits absolutely perfectly in several Guide lamps but was made specifically for the WarnRay lamp.  This lens came from an FDNY pumper of 1930's vintage which was later refurbished and stationed in Tiverton, R.I. at the Texaco Refinery (following conversion to a foam pumper) and it was the first pumper to arrive at the major fuel oil storage conflagration of the 1960's there.  This lens also is a direct and perfect fit for many Tripp Lights, including the unusual double-faced Tripp-Lite.
This lense will require NO UPGRADE, ever.  It is a beautiful deep ruby red color and is of the somewhat rare "bullseye" prism design.  It will be very carefully packaged.  It is being offered for sale locally at truck swap meets, etc.  It is priced as if it is a very hard-to-find item... because it is !!
