There's a guy in ND who recently contacted me about selling his island light like yours pictured..I'll email you the link. Here's a nice REVERE brand Sunoco Blue Porcelain island light fixture w/matching porcelain blue spots,that I recently got up & running...Like wrestling an octopus. |
Re: Gas Stations
A beautiful piece! Probably out of my league unless I luck onto something. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/drool.gif[/img] [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/headbang.gif[/img]

Re: Gas Stations
I bought three Revere fluted poles from another collector friend in North Dakota a couple years ago and dragged them home to restore. At the time I paid $450 each for them (unrestored) and that was a smoking deal with porcelain shades included. Shades alone go $250 to $500 depending on condition. Poles with the three or five bulb light fixture atop the shade, I have seen them go $1500 each in unrestored condition and they are very heavily sought by oil and gas collectors. You may get lucky and find a lone shade for $300-$500 depending on condition? I'll keep an eye out for you.
These are the 3 that I restored and put on the pump island in my garage. The wireless remote turns all the lights on/off which is a nice touch. http://i1218.photobucket.com/albums/...n/IMG_3735.jpg |

Re: Gas Stations
I thank you and all who help here. Cool stuff that I am addicted to. As far as finding a light, I subscribe to the theory that " every once and awhile a blind hog finds an acorn." Forgive me, I am an Appalachian. That means, with a little luck, I may stumble on to one I can afford?

Re: Gas Stations
Deals are still out there. Just start searching craigslist and maybe use a Tempest search on Revere Lights to find the deal that's right for you.
Fact is, they were used all over the US and are still pretty abundant out there. |

Do you have a preferred color? I've personally seen em in Blue,Red,Green,White,Yellow & Cream (Beige). If you do find one,make sure it's not painted. A few are painting them to customers desire,then saying they're authentic. Porcelain doesn't scratch off. |
