    I found this at a flee market tent in NY. When I found it, it was just tied up against a pole. I asked them the price and got it down to $25!!!! It's now in great working condition.

      Yea I think it's a cool price to have! I think it's worth $250-$300 but I'm not to sure.

      We only have one intersection with 4 of these here in St. Maarten. I can get $250-300 for each? Have an oxy/acet rig & have them down in 5 mins.! Nobody would miss them as they only work half the time. Most people ignore them anyway.

      Hi vwbus, are the lenses plastic or glass ?
    7. blunderbuss2 blunderbuss2, 11 years ago
      Tommy, sure you don't need 4? Shipping from here might be a little expensive though.
    8. tommy1002 tommy1002, 11 years ago
      I would take 4 but I don't want you to risk the felony, taking the only light in a one intersection town could have serious consequences!!!!

      There glass and it was in Utica last year!

      We have lots more intersections & they are all 24/7 demolition derby action sites, including the one with the lights. Many have benches that for awhile I thought were for people waiting on buses until I realized they were for spectators.

      Does anyone know the year or how to tell?

      Can you post bigger pictures, when I click on the pictures they stay the same size.

      Now all you need is the synchronized timer to rotate between the colors..

      Looks to me like a 1960s Marbelite, but I'd need bigger pictures to be sure. These were very common, and many are available off the streets, so paying a price like $200 ought not be necessary. I have bought and sold them many times for under $100. That said, they are very cool. Marbelites are sharp-looking signals.
