Description
Fully Reconditioned 1960s Theatre Lantern
This is an original example of an iconic piece of British Industrial design. Known as the ‘Baby Spot’ the Patt 23 was manufactured by Strand Electric in their factory in London’s West End. The lantern is superbly engineered, and features a die cast ventilated body, iconic circular design and an internal reflector. This example was manufactured in the1960’s, purchased by a school in the North West where it was installed in their theatre and remained there until a few months ago. It seems that it has been hardly used and is in stunning original condition with barely any signs or wear on the bodyshell. We have been restoring these lanterns for over a decade now and I’ve never seen any in finer original condition
