 |
|
I came across a 19 pcs of Westinghouse Mazda 239W Aircraft Landing Lights (it actually says Headlight..which dates it). I have 9 of the 24V bulbs and 10 of the identical but12V bulbs. It appears that these are from the early 1930's since they fit the (UK) Rearwin Cloudster for example.
How do I best sell these and to whom? What are 1930 landing lights worth? I can't imagine there are more than a few of these on the planet.
eh?

These guys seem to think they're worth about $8 each . . .

Bob,
$8 is what the guy paid for the one in his museum collection. It is not for sale. There isn't another I can find anywhere.

Eric;
Here's a guy specializing in locating and selling rare and obsolete light
bulbs. He lists your bulbs on his site but says he is sold out. He might be
an interested customer or perhaps give a hint as to the value.

Bob McC--Thanks, but if anyone can find stuff on the Interwebs, I can. So please don't "Google it for me". The guy you refer to--not only does he have none, but he will charge $$ to determine their value (Hah!) and will offer almost nothing. I'll shoot him an email anyway, as well as post on the Cloudster sites.
But I have faith that somebody out there in Aeroelectricland knows what I need to know.
