Manufactured by Tideland Specialty Company, Houston Texas. It utilizes a thick, clear glass Fresnel lens set into an aluminum alloy body for illumination. The drum lens measures 6-1/2" tall and 8-1/2" in diameter. Lens is in great condition! There are four angled steel bolted swivel dogs to lock the top down tight and four mounting posts at the base. Original S.S. bolts are present at base plate. Steel bolts Fresnel lens guards and attachments. The hinged top opens to the interior light source. Recently removed from long-term Courtyard installation, first time available! Weight is approximately 25 pounds. Measures 22" high (not including the top finial) & the base is 8-1/2" in diameter. Very good, all-original condition. Has not been cleaned.

CONDITION: The 360 degree glass Fresnel lens has an approx. 6 inch area with fractures and rim chips on one side (see photo image), but the lense is whole and useable. The red painted surface survives with surface scratches and paint loss from weather wear use. The exterior electrical box has two female bronze cord interceptors for wiring with screw off plug caps, but the box is missing it's lid. This marine buoy has seen years of service at sea and is completely authentic with the exception of the replaced interior light.
