OLD General Electric F14T12 Daylight Lamp
I got this at the ReStore for a quarter. It looks OLD. It's moderatly used but works! I've never seen a F14T12 ever in use though I've seen the lamps before. The etch and the black lamp pins are telling me this thing's OLD.

WHAAAAAAATTT?!?!?! Shocked Very Happy WOW! Thanks! I was thinking mid 60s. Shocked I'm glad i bought this since i was going to leave it then decided to come back last minute and grab it for the heck of it since i figured daylight F14T12s were a little uncommon and i thought the etch was cool since it was so thin (yet more durable than today's etches). normally i get disappointed when i get a lamp dated that i suspect to be vintage, as it's usually newer than i suspect. This one was a pleasant surprise. Laughing

WOW it's even older than my F14T12/CW from '56!

Shocked VERY NICE! My oldest fluorescent is also a F14T12. Here's mine it's a Champion /CW from '55-'59.

Thanks. Yeah i guess i lucked out with this lamp! Cool The first time i went to the ReStore i saw this lamp but it was the non-etch side up, which is pretty black so i left it. This time i just pulled it up for the heck of it and when i saw the cool etch and the fact that it was daylight it went in the backseat of the car. Laughing
