I'm posting this for an acquaintance who just sold an old theatre and is clearing out all items. Most of it is dusty and worn, but there might be some cool fixtures or equipment you could use for parts. I've actually seen the Ashcroft lamp houses and they're nice looking!Her email is: joan_koche@juno.com and she's in Derry, PA. 4 fake plastic theater lights that look real A bunch of stainless steel lighting fixtures that are newer. I purchased them to hang our new lights on. We never got the new lights. I closed down the project. Let me know if you have an interest and I will give more details. 1 American Standard drinking fountain with hardware 2 Very ornate lighting globes (see photo called light) Oak drop leaf table - 1920 2 fancy brass, silver painted globe holders 2 frosted white globes various metal boxes RCA Electron Tubes - various sizes and shapes 6 " letters for the marquis - red - metal 2 metal handled wisk brooms 1 wood handled wisk broom Bingo Number Set - numbers 1 to 100 Metal bingo tumbler with stand excellent condition Tripod board that holds the bingo numbers 1 to 100 Mass Quantities of Bingo Cards with numbers 1 to 100 Lots - Trim pieces from the walls - all painted with silver gilding Other moldings various sizes Curtains - Blue pale and royal, maroon and silver 1 Tapestry/wall hanging Very Art Deco (see photo) Oriental Oil on Canvas Very Large. Approx. 12 feet by 8 feet 36 Sections of Intact but dusty Theater seating (see photo for style) 60 + spare seat backs - Wooden 65 + spare seat backs - Velour 58 + spare seat bottoms - Wooden 65 + spare seat bottoms - Velour Enough hardware and sides, both ornate and plain to make up another 100 seats 1 Green Rewind Table with 4 drawers and film holder 3 Music Stands - Intact They have K + B H on the bottoms (see photo) 1 Cylendrical Art Deco Style Free Standing Black Ashtray with Long Silver Arrows that run up the sides. About 32" tall Rolls of Tickets All say Gem Theater 4 Rolls marked 12 cents... 2 Rolls marked 15 cents 5 Rolls marked 17 cents 2 Rolls marked 23 cents 3 Rolls marked 35 cents 8 Rolls marked 38 cents 1 Jenkinsons best cigar box with two sections 2 Metal Bug Sprayers - Way cool! Film - a few rolls 2 very odd bulbs that are about 8 inches long and are oblong in shape Very Odd looking Lounge Furniture Chrome Plated with Red Leather Cushions and Black Arm Rests 3 Art Deco Lobby Doors Red and Stainless. All have a half moon design on each side of the door. 3 Other lobby doors. Very heavy wood. I think these are the original ones. 2 Marquis covers with glass and 2 without glass. You know the big frames that went on the outside of the theater and had glass to protect those lovely posters from the weather. 1 - 4’ x 6’ Light up Nature Scene. Not Theater related but a nice 60ish addition to a room all the same. Floor Grate 18" x 24" approx. One Chandelier bases and one Complete Chandelier. Definitely depression era. Made of pressed cardboard that is gilded and has cloth inlay that the light shines through. 1 - Wall Sconce that directs light to the steps. Original fixture 1 - Brass Floor Lamp with pinkish glass oblong globe on the stem. Circa 1920 1 Transverter LV-40_80 Model # 13340 4 complete racks of stage lighting. 30 lights on each rack. Colored glass covers-red green, blue and white. Use standard light bulbs 2 - Complete Simplex Systems (see photos called "projector 1 and projector 2") Includes 2 Strong Bases to mount units on, 2 Simplex 19000 High Automatic Reflector Arc Lamps, 2 IPC Simplex Projectors (patent # 2114939) Made by International Projector Company; New York, New York. 1 - RCA Directional Baffle Mi-1469-A 1 - Much Larger Speaker Type Thing that just happens to be half buried in the "basement". Near as I can see it is intact, whatever its purpose is. 1 - Piece of wood that says on it "International Projector Corp. LU-1017 2 - 2000 foot film magazines 4 - 6000 foot film magazines 6 - Wadsworth Electrical Service Equipment Units. One is pretty big. 1 - PA Lighting Company Approved Emergency Lighting System #1364 Manufactured in Greensburg, Pa. 11 - Glass Storage Batteries manufactured by Bowers Battery Manufacturing Co., Inc. Out of Reading, Pa. HERE IS A ONE OF A KIND....It appears to be the first air conditioning unit ever manufactured by Norge. I couldn’t get enough light to it to pull off numbers. Sorry. 3 - Film Cases Not sure of sizes. Two have reels in them and are in good condition. The smaller one does not have reels and is much older but is not in real good condition. It is different too. It looks like it could hold six reels, but five are running up and sown and the sixth is flat across and under the other five. All hold six reels. 1 - Motiograph Power Generator with Control Panel. Model # S-6089 1 - Tri State Auto Candy Corp. Table/concession unit #2917 1 - Art Deco Lobby Divider It’s got all of these open areas that you can see through and could set nick-nacks on. Looks 40ish or 50ish to me. 2 - Tall Stands of some kind. They look like over sized saw horses, but I know that they serve some theater related purpose. 2 - Maybe more tripod lobby stands. 48 - Jugs. Some green, some brown and some white glass. All have "one gallon" imprinted in the glass. These held syrups. One jug has a double handle on the top. Here are some brand names: 1."COLLD and Refreshing" Nippy lemon and/or orange Manufactured by The Flavoripe Co of Pittsburgh. 2."Theater Brand Flavored Syrup" by Theater Candy Co. of Pittsburgh 3. "Double H Products" (HH) out of Pittsburgh 4. "Evans" couldn't read the lable 5. "Blend" Fountain Drink Co. (see Photo) 1 - Ticket Holder Stands waist high, top is 12" x 12" x 12" x 12", is red with stainless trim. 1 - Concessionaries Counter Top is 4 feet by 2 feet approx. It stands about waist high. Has a back piece to it. May have even been in the ladies room. It has two doors in the front that swing out to open. It is made of dark wood. Assorted cleaning buckets. Very old. Metal with wooden rollers. Joan Koche Reynolds 123 East Second Avenue Derry, Pa. 15627
