ABSTRACT:
An electric gaslight simulative for installation in an existing light fixture by merely screw threading the simulative into an existing light bulb socket after a conventional light bulb has been removed therefrom thereby converting the light fixture into a light which produces a glow or illumination quite similar to that produced by an actual gaslight and having external physical appearance characteristics simulative of an actual gaslight. The simulative includes an adapter constructed of insulative material having a screw threaded brass cap on one end thereof for insertion into the existing light bulb socket with a smaller light bulb socket being mounted on the adapter and receiving a generally cylindrical light bulb that telescopes into a generally cylindrical, closed end mantle of glass cloth or similar material with the mantle being supported removably from the adapter body and being supported by a wire frame with both the mantle and wire frame being removable to enable replacement of the elongated cylindrical light bulb. The open end of the mantle is provided with a reinforcing metallic foil tape bonded thereto with the open end of the mantle and tape being received telescopically into a peripheral groove formed in the body of the adapter.
