WTB brass GE light bulb socket
I need one just like this. Marked “ GE Co USA 75 w 125 v “. Takes auto size bulbs. Will buy one or more. If you have something very similar , vintage, I would buy 2 or 4. Also consider something old , similar but sized for candelabra bulbs. Tmorsher@icloud.com to reach me. Thanks!

Re: WTB brass GE light bulb socket
Two more just like these would be well rewarded. I can make a base to work.

Re: WTB brass GE light bulb socket
I n searching it appears that the bulb is type B22 - and most references relate to a British or English style socket. So here is an option allows the use of the B22 into a conversion socket so regular socket can be used. All depends on what you goal is. Unfortunately stock in the USA is limited and shipment may be form another country so eyes open

The past is a great place and I don't want to erase it or to regret it, but I don't want to be its prisoner either.

Re: WTB brass GE light bulb socket
It’s is not. It’s the same bulb used in millions of old cars including model T ford. Why throw confusion in my WTB thread?

Thanks for the lead, Dan. Great website, I have messages off to them hoping they have some old stuff that will work. Bookmarked it, too.
