I thought some of you might have one of those 1930's glass taillight sales displays that uses actual taillight lenses as samples. These were the displays of aftermarket lenses found in repair shops, gas stations and auto supply stores back in the day.

I have 14, new-in-box, glass taillight lenses running from 1933 to 1940. Various auto brands are represented. All are in excellent condition. Just let me know, if you're looking for a specific lens to fill a hole in your display. I'll check and get back to you.

NOTE: Only four lenses are shown....there are others not pictured. So, please ask, if your looking for something special.

The price is just $6 per lens. OR, buy all 14 lenses for only $50 (works out to about $3.50 each). Shipping is additional.

These are the displays I have. John, maybe they may help you identify some of the lenses you have. They are currently packed away from the move so I can't provide measurements.

Wow, Dave. What an impressive collection. THANK YOU for the helpful post. It's good to see the photos.

I have to believe very few, complete, excellent condition display boards like these exist these days. Your parking lamp lens display is especially interesting. That's one I've never seen before at meets, even with some lenses missing. John
