ABSTRACT:
An electric gaslight simulative for installation in an existing candelabra-type light fixture by merely removing the existing bulb and installing the simulative and placing a cylindrical bulb in the socket 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 body constructed of insulative material positioned on an existing candelabra-type light bulb socket mount and held in place by the 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.
