Note the CB in the diamond. This emblem was kept under the inside peaks of the top, on either side of each ring, from the Beatty truck show of 1945, through the rail show era, and on through Beatty-Cole, until his name was retired from the show, 38 years after his passing.

That's 1 of my old washtub light clusters

They were written up in Amusement Business

The washtubs protected the lamps & reflectors

The 1 I made for Dave Hoover had a wide spread

& was suspended by the net rope
