AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

I have to offer a iconic traffic signal, Ampelmännchen from the 1969-1990s, decommissioned in 1990 from the former GDR block. Read (Wikipedia Ampelmännchen) (Designed in 1961 by East German transport designer and psychologist Karla Peglau, Ampelmännchen remained in use even after the fall of the Berlin Wall, gradually becoming a cult object and tourist attraction. The power cable is 5 meters long with a switch, in red and green.
The lights can be adjusted by 180° from right to left. Two mounting brackets. The lights are in good condition for their age and usage, with minimal signs of aging, including scratches and discolorations, see photos. Remember that the lights have been exposed to weather conditions. Please review the photos before bidding for your own assessment. Ready to use.

Height 64 cm
width 27 cm
