20th Century Mole Richardson Theatrical Spotlight, c.1940
About the Item
This well-preserved mid-20th-century Mole Richardson spotlight is a remarkable testament to the cinematic heritage. Since 1927, when Sicilian-born Pietro Mule, later known as Peter Mole, introduced his innovative tungsten spotlight to Hollywood, these fixtures have played a pivotal role in film production. This particular free-standing spotlight, fashioned from polished metal on rolling wheels, dates back to the early 1940s and still proudly displays its original MR badge and patent number. It not only exudes timeless elegance but also serves as a captivating statement piece for any home interior.
