Description
Replacement BI-COLOR Senior Trippe Safety Light glass lens. Made from original press molds. This lens has all the proper wording and reads TRIPPE SPEEDLIGHT along the bottom. The lens is 7 7/8″ in diameter at the outer edge and 7″ in diameter at the raised, inner edge.
The color is not a sprayed-on dye nor a film but rather a tinting agent that is FIRED ON the lens in a kiln.
NOTE:
For those who are curious about the tinting agent coming off the lens. I tried using lacquer thinner, acetone and Naptha and a rough, green scrub pad and the color didn’t come off. The sheen got a little duller because of the scrubbing but the color stayed on.
Made in the USA.
