Larry Schramm Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Looks like a bicycle lamp from the late 50's or early 60's. The bottom would have a standoff that would attach to the bolt that goes through the handle bars. Just IMO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcolleary Posted March 5, 2017 Author Share Posted March 5, 2017 Thanks . I never thought of that . I am pretty sure I had headlights with this design at one time Regards Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 I would think that if it was for a bicycle, it would have a switch on the top of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 (edited) Apparently, this seller doesn't know what his lamp is for, either....http://www.ebay.com/itm/Vintage-Antique-Cowl-Fender-Light-Duesenburg-Chrysler-Cord-Marmon-Nash-Hupmobile-/401219674620?hash=item5d6a8e61fc:g:iYoAAOSw8w1YBp73&vxp=mtr Edited March 5, 2017 by keiser31 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Schramm Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 Just taking a guess. Just reminded me of lights that I had on bicycles in the day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keiser31 Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 (edited) By the shape of the bullet bucket and convex lens, I would guess for a 1932-34 something. Don't ever remember seeing one with that teardrop shaped bump. Edited March 5, 2017 by keiser31 (see edit history) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nzcarnerd Posted March 5, 2017 Share Posted March 5, 2017 I think we had something similar to identify a few months ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zipdang Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 That lense looks "heavier" than what I remember seeing on a bicycle. Of course, I don't have an alternate I.D., just guessing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
28 Chrysler Posted March 6, 2017 Share Posted March 6, 2017 The bulb or socket would tell if it was for a bike. It looks to me as a better quality automotive aftermarket light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
