Classic 1940’s Mole Richardson 10 inch type 410, Fresnel-lensed movie lamp is tagged as being equipment from A.V. Rowe, the company that designed and built the famous Avro Arrow fighter jet from the 50’s. The fixture was disassembled, stripped, repaired, polished and converted to operate with a standard household bulb.
The “410” is a rare variant of this size of lamp with many brass and aluminum elements and fittings including the original heavy duty on/off switch. Its stand expands to a height of more than 10 feet, the unit has an extra long cord and the beam can be adjusted from flood to spot with the twist of a knob.
It is ready to plug in and shine and would be the focal point of any residential or commercial venue. Many similar units on 1stDibs and Etsy are going for significantly more. Beautiful patina, quite large and extremely handsome fixture - $1,450
