The 1946 Westinghouse Select-o-ray double-ended lamp

 


With an ultraviolet sun lamp in one end and an infrared heat lamp in the other, this ivory-enameled fixture (I also found a pale blue version listed on ebay - my annotation) for bedroom or bathroom will equip the householder for all his special-light needs. The Select-o-ray, manufactured by Westinghouse, has a three-position switch, a combined floor and table stand, and a friction mount that permits it to be adjusted to and held at any angle. To produce the ultraviolet and infrared rays, the fixture uses two standard-base, internal-reflector bulbs, the ultraviolet one a self-ballasting type.
