Vintage JUMBO Kyp-go Balafire Oscillating Carbon Filament Bulb Please Read:
$120.00

Very rare and early JUMBO Balafire Oscillating Carbon Filament Bulb from Kyp-go. Amber in color. Yes these are larger than the standard Balafire bulbs you have seen before. G30 is printed on box flap. The standard Balafire is a G25. G30= 3.80\" dia. G25= 3.15\" dia. Box measurements are 3 7/8 x 5 1/4. Bulb measures 5\" tall. Box is in good condition and displays nicely. Bulb is in very good condition considering its 50 years old. The may be some very slight shrink cracking of coating but its hard to tell. Condition is a 9/10 I\'d say. Still looks amazing! This is from my personal collection of weird bulbs. Interestingly the larger envelope size allows the Filament to bend further to almost 90°. See all pics for size comparisons to a standard Balafire bulb. These guys were all handmade in chicago, then later in Florida. Not this sale is for 1 Jumbo amber bulb only. No other bulbs or can lamps are included. This is a must have for any serious bulb collector! Thanks for looking!
