Those of you who are lucky enough to own any Thorn SLI/H lamps, this may have been one of yours! Nice close-up on that old Mazda BC fitting too! Had this grand old factory survived, you just know this fitting would still be performing dutifully today!

I was just wondering if that was a BC fitting or maybe an Atlantic with some sort of tube cover on it? plus the hair again lol

Oh yes the 70s hair and fashions! LOL! Paul and I were wondering the same over that fitting!

The cathode cover is too short for a BC lamp IMHO...

I dunno just opened the picture and it could be either!!!
