I will have you know to be VERY careful with that bulb... For... it can be worth some serious bucks.
You need to research the origin of this bulb to find a provenance.

You know...
I think this almost qualifies in a weird way for a banner find.
I mean to find a lightbulb is one thing... to find a 100 year old one is a WHOLE other thing...
THEN... to find one that is a hundred years old.. AND WORKS... is like... wow.
