Interesting stumbling across this video. When I was a kid, I found a mercury vapor lamp and fixture, took it home. Had it in my bedroom, that was In 1967. I collected all kinds of light bulbs and flash lights. Brings back good memories
While visiting a Home Depo during my work travels today, I happened to spot a 175 watt mercury vapor bulb on the shelf. I always like to see what kind of incandescents and HIDs are still on the shelves in different parts of the country.
Definitely post Girder frame lamp. Manufactured Janurary 1976.

Nice greenish colour typical with aged lamps, love the ballast hum!
If only they could make newer lamps this beautiful. Great video!
