Hmm, I'd guess it looks like it's from the 80s.

1980's is vintage to me! I've never seen that style doughnut ring to hold the arctube support to the glass nipple before...

[joe_347V]

Uh yeah, this is definitely not a ballast.... xD

High pressure sodium mercury vapor lamp eh?

O_o a Durotest cleartop! I wonder if all ten of them are Durotest. The price is still pretty good though.

[Mike]

i didn't even realize they were duro-test! I only looked at the description and saw venture...

[joe_347V]

Recognize one of the pictures? 

[A_lights]

Lol at roadway security light

[Mike]

O_O that's Darren's pic!

[joe_347V]

I'm guessing he saw it off Google image search or something and added it to his listing.

Westinghouse Holophane lamp shade light fixture anyone? here. Looks like someone hacked a hole into an OV-25 lens and used parts off an old brass chandelier and passed it off as a vintage fixture... It IS made from vintage parts... I'll give them that...

I know this is an Amazon listing, but it's still worth a look.

[joe_347V]

Heh, it looks like the arc tube snapped in half.

Not only that, but the description is wrong in many ways. Calling the lamp an incandescent, underrating the lumen output, and saying the lamp can be used in 120v fixtures.
