AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

I have to offer a iconic traffic signal, the Ampelmännchen from the 1969-1990s, withdrawn from operation in 1990 from the former East Germany bloc. 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 an object of cult and a tourist attraction). Power cable 4.5 m.

The lights can be adjusted 180° from right to left. Two mounting brackets. The lights, for their age and usage, are in very good condition with minimal signs of aging, with minimal scratches and discoloration, see photos. Remember that the lights were exposed to the elements).
Please view the photos before bidding for your own assessment. To reduce shipping costs, two mounting brackets have been unbolted. Easy installation. Ready to use with LED bulbs.

Height 71 cm
Width 25 cm
Depth 47 cm

Shipping to the Azores, Madeira, Ceuta, Melilla, Gibraltar, Virgin Islands 320 euros, Cook Islands 932 euros. I do not ship to Russia, Ukraine, Israel, Belarus - no possibility
