Antique Movie Set Light [Restoration]

This restoration is on a 1950s Model 414 Senior Spot light made by Mole Richardson Inc. of Hollywood, CA, USA. I found this light at an antique shop several years ago and it waited in the corner of the workshop for me to decide what to do with it. The light was outfitted with a modern 60w home light bulb for decor purposes, but I wanted to bring it back to its former glory. This light can handle up to a 10,000w light bulb that is sure to burn your eyes and face.

After some extensive research, I found that this light was heavily repaired and modified over the years, to where it does not even resemble a Model 414 light. Regardless, all the original parts except the bulb and emblem were present. I decided to to use a 5000w 240v lamp instead of the 10,000w 120v one due to the power limitations in my workshop. I also chose to leave the metal completely bare and it secretly find a restore an original stand as well.

In the end this thing is insanely bright, very hot, and looks really cool. Some would say it's basically me. Only some though....

The amazingly remade emblem was laser engraved by thomas.utley@vonindustrial.com
