Classic Ruby Red Leaded Glass Wanted

[Doug Gregory]

Wanting to buy around 45 to 50 feet of 8/12/15 mm older ruby red leaded glass sticks, coated or uncoated. This is NOT the newer Tecnolux or EGC brand ruby, this is the old American made ruby red glass that contains lead. From what the older neon guys tell me this type of glass was discontinued around 1970. Hopefully I can find someone with some old stock/sticks left. If you have any for sale, please contact me with price.

Thanks !

Why does it have to be old lead glass? Yes the old lead glass is a little easier to work with. The available ruby looks the same.

That stuff is getting very hard to find. I have some 10mm, but can't seem as I have a client that uses it from fine to time and I know I can't replace it.

And no, the new stuff does not look like the old stuff.
