#tbtPrimelite | 1960s | #Scintillating
#tbtPrimelite: While researching our collection of antique Primelite catalogs we’ve come across original black and white photographs featuring some of our early lighting fixtures. The photos are stunning and we’ll be sharing these photos in our weekly #tbtPrimelite series.
This week we are highlighting a hanging fixture from our “Scintillating Cracked Glass Globe” series from the 1960s. Always popular, these fixtures definitely reflect the styles of the time with globes available in crystal, topaz, tangerine and lime! Available finishes included “Satin Flemish” and Polished Brass. “Scintillating” indeed!
The International Dark-Sky Association* is working to protect the night skies for present and future generations. Primelite continues to do our part to help promote dark skies with the release of the LED72 version of our “Dark Sky Friendly” street light, #1235. With it’s LEDs nestled in the prismatic top, the light faces down while avoiding any uplight light-spill helping to avoid any additional contribution to light pollution.
The included 4 x LED18s give a pleasant brightness and is perfect in any urban, suburban or commercial exterior situation. Parks, parking lots, walkways, town squares, sidewalks would all benefit from the cost saving of our LED streetlights.
Primelite’s streetlight #1235 is now available with a choice of LEDs: LED40 (equal to 70w MH), LED52 (125w MH) and LED72 (175w MH). The fixture comes with a 4 level step-up base, which adds a sophisticated and classic form to your exterior installations, and fits any of our 3″ posts.
Together we can work to bring back the sky for future generations.

Primelite Manufacturing is proud to announce an update to our Interior Decorative Lighting Catalog, “B”. Our latest insert features four new and exciting series of interior lighting fixtures.
The Saucer Series features wall and ceiling fixtures based on the simple saucer shape. Ranging in sizes from 6″ to a magnificent 47″, all fixtures accept an Edison style silvertip bulb, available in both incandescent or LED.
We are especially excited to introduce a new line of LED fixtures, the Spider Series. Our “Spider” pendants offer clean modern lines with a smart and refreshing simplicity. Incorporating the LEDs as an integral part of the design, these chic fixtures are perfect in any modern home, industrial office space or modernly attired restaurant.
The Checkers Series of lighting fixtures was created with interior flair. These thin, steel fixtures bring a classic and classy elegance to many commercial situations including; commercial hallways, hotels, restaurants, etc. Available in incandescent or hardwired LED lamps.
Our Sputnik Series fixtures are reminiscent of the clean lines of the early space days, from a simple, 2 lamped adjustable fixture to our “Sputnik”, an eight armed sophistication of lines and lights. In contrast, “Cynthia” reworks those straight lines into a 45″ spheroid of circles and lights. And speaking of lights we highly recommend using an Edison style retro bulb as an appropriate accent for these fixtures.

#tbt / #1970s / #juvenileGems
#tbtPrimelite: Another blast from Primelite’s past! Today we’re again highlighting our “Juvenile Gems” selection of 1970s children’s globes. An earlier #tbt of children’s lights featured “Raggedy Ann” and clowns. This later 1970’s catalog introduced additional characters including the “Tin Man,” inspired by “The Wizard of Oz.” Our children’s lights were also now available as ceiling/hanging and desk lamps.
Primelite continued working with a local artist who hand painted each face/globe. The fixtures were then hand constructed and assembled in our warehouse. These fixtures were primarily used in children’s bedrooms and were popular throughout the ’70s decade.
This week Primelite once again returns to its roots, with the introduction of an LED version of the classic Gooseneck #20/853. Our Gooseneck #20/853 LED12 is known for its stylish versatility and is the answer to many lighting dilemmas. The gooseneck comes hardwired with an LED12 array, a 90° swivel and is dimmable.
Perfect for most exterior situations including: signage, exterior building illumination, interior signage, illumination and more. And as always our Gooseneck #20/853 LED12 is available in 29 powder coated colors. Customs colors are also available.
