Bottom Right corner AM-747. These numbers usually are a clue to date of catalog. I'd guess 1974.

I recently received these from member @ropersupplyco and told him that I would get them scanned in to share with you all. Some cool literature including a catalog and their dealer newsletter.

I was looking through my hard drives and came across the 2003 911EP catalogue.

Unfortunately not the one with the ”flying sourcer” beacon that could be mounted on top of their roof bars.

I also found the 2004 911EP catalogue that is the same as the one that Tony P posted but this is the original downloaded one from 911EP’s web

1971 Yankee Catalog. Looks like emergency lighting was something they were just getting into. Didn't even have the 1166 teardrop lights yet. Most of this edition of their catalog was side-view mirrors.

Abstract​

A warning light assembly is provided that includes a simple drive train for accomplishing an 180° or more oscillation of a light beam. By advantageously utilizing a speed-reduction mechanism, a transmission for converting rotary motion to oscillating motion and a coupling for multiplying the angle of oscillation, the drive provides an inexpensive and rugged enabling design the warning light assembly to oscillate a light beam through angles heretofore unattainable.

 

[stlfireman]

A flashing signal light that includes a rotatably mounted signal generator formed of a light transmitting material and a non-rotatable source of light adapted to direct light into the generator along its axis of rotation. A pyramid shaped prism is associated with the generator having its apex positioned along the axis of rotation. The prism surfaces intercept the light directed into the generator, split the light into one or more beams and direct the beams towards the exit face of the generator in a plane that is substantially perpendicular to the axis of rotation.

I bid on this catalog like crazy On eBay. Once it got over $36 I was out. But the screenshots are worthy of sharing here.

 

[LRGJr72]

These are from a 1978 issue of JCW. I looked forward to my free copy every month as a kid. Until they dropped warning lights almost entirely in the late 1980s.

 

[LRGJr72]

.. missed this one from the same issue.

Vintage Patents and Ads

STAFF EDIT: This is now the official Patent and Ad section. Catalogs and manuals should go in those stickies. Skulldigger (Kelly) and I have been working on locating patents for some of our favorite vintages lights. He has found quite a few and I have began printing some on parchment style...
