I am starting up a small theater group in the Lancaster PA area. I hope to make use of some historic-looking footlights, and was looking for a place that may have some physical examples, or even close-up photographs.
I am familiar with the idea of mounting some vacuum-formed plastic seashells in front of a light socket. However, I would prefer to go with something that looks pre-electricity. I imagine I could just get any sort of oil lamp that has a reflector, but those are not as much designed to be seen from the back. I've seen a few images, or hand illustrations, but of course, they don't give me enough detail.
I was hoping this museum would have something, but it seems to no longer be in existence. (see my message from a few minutes ago, warning about the bad link) But, perhaps some subscribers are still active. Any suggestions?
The web site takes you to a page with Asian text. So, either the font got messed up, or perhaps the account was hacked to redirect you to another site. So, don't click anything in that web page, in case it starts a virus
infection.
I have this daguerreotype of Edwin Booth for sale, $3000.00
What happened to this page? And why does the website listed come up in Japanese? o.O
