Ashby Lantern
The Ashby is an enclosed lantern of aluminium and opal 'Perspex', designed primarily for residential areas.
In combination with the Leader column its appearance is unmatched both by day and night. It can be specified without
hesitation for any situation where looks and the colour quality of light are important.
Lamps. For one 100/200W tungsten filament or one 80/125W mercury (MB/U) or colour corrected mercury (MBF/U).
'Leader' 15 Column
The new 15 ft. 'Leader' aluminium column is light - it can readily be carried by one man - and strong. The appearance of the
metal surface is agreeable and it does not need the protection of paint except in localities where the atmosphere is
exceptionally corrosive. 'Leader' columns are made by a recently intorduced extrusion technique, operated exclusively by
AEI Lamp and Lighting Co. Ltd, from magnesium silicon aluminium (RTI 441-EP), the alloy specified for resistance
to weather. The column illustrated is the 'Leader' 15, a slim, tapering triangular section shaft, secured to a similar triangular
base by a shoulder casting. Others are 'Leader' 15T, extruded, but with a full length tapering triangular section, and
'Leader' 15R, a tapering tubular column.
