Period / bakelite Sockets or plugs


Tom

Recommended Posts

Does anybody have any 1930's or other Bakelite sockets and or plugs

 

Need a few for our next show as dressing and for running in pracs.

 

Not overly fussed if they are not exact period as they'll be fairly well hidden.

 

Be happy to purchase but happier to borrow them.

 

Feel free to email me off board toma@hampsteadtheatre.com

 

Thanks in advance

If you want to give Tev a shout (contact details on the stagebus website linked to in my .sig) he definitely has some of the old bakalight plugs kicking about, less sure about the sockets.

Car boot sales and junk shops often have old electrical fittings for sale.

Also try asking local electricians for old items removed during re-wires.

 

Depending on age and condition though they may not be suitable for mains voltage use, if the fittings are required to be used to supply or control practicals, then it might be prudent to only use them on 12/24 volts.
