Description from the seller
I have to offer a iconic traffic signal, Ampelmännchen from Siemens from the 1969-1990s, withdrawn from operation in 1990 from the former East Bloc NRD. Read (Wikipedia Ampelmännchen) ( Designed in 1961 by East German designer and transport psychologist Karl Peglau, the Ampelmännchen remained in use even after the fall of the Berlin Wall, becoming over the years a cult object and a tourist attraction). Power cable 5 m with switch. Two mounting brackets. The lights for their era and use are in good condition with minimal signs of age, they have scratches, discolorations, abrasions, other paint see photos. They have a small nick, shown in photo 21. Invisible and does not affect the lamp’s aesthetics. Remember that the lights were exposed to weather conditions). Please view the photos before bidding for your own assessment. To reduce shipping costs, two light domes have been disassembled. Easy installation. Ready to use with new wiring and bulbs.
Height 65 cm
width 27 cm
depth 47 cm
Shipping to Azores, Madeira, Ceuta, Melilla, Gibraltar, Virgin Islands 320 euro, Cook Islands 932 euro. I do not ship to Russia, Ukraine, Israel, Belarus - not possible
