RARE Antique Buckeye Roto-Rays Fire Truck Revolving Emergency Light Pat Pending For Sale

RARE Antique Buckeye Iron & Brass Works Roto-Rays Fire Truck Revolving Emergency Light Pat Pending

This fire department emergency light is a must-have for any collector of historical firefighting memorabilia!

The first Roto-Ray was produced by Buckeye Iron & Brass Works of Dayton, Ohio. They were issued the patent in 1929 and began production in 1930. This rare early light is patent pending and marked 157.

There are some chips and scratches in the housing paint which is to be expected for an almost 100 year old piece. The lenses are in good shape with minor scuffs and scratches but no visible cracks or chips. I did not remove them from their chrome holders to inspect the edges. This is being sold in as-in condition but I am sure anyone knowledgeable with this type of memorabilia will recognize the significance of this piece. I have no way to test this so do not know if in working condition.

Please examine all photographs, they are part of the description. Questions welcome.
