Tim Babcock Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 I just finished this GE. I decided to leave it as original as possible. I did coat it with clear lacquer as the paint was dull after cleaning. I also wanted to preserve the secondary logo on the top of the head. This one is Green Electric co. Paris Texas. I have a couple of others but most times they are half gone. The in tact logo was also a reason for the clear lacquer. It will help preserve the what looks to be 100 year old slide decal. I had to rewire it but I used an antique line in two wire for the line in. It would not fit in the head to switch so I used new wire on that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anthony Lindsey Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 That is a 7 digit phone # and what looks like an area code but faded. Area codes came into use in the 1950's 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Babcock Posted December 8, 2023 Author Share Posted December 8, 2023 I did a quick search and found the company was formed in 1933, and is now an apartment building. Looking for some old photos of the business. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
