Century Light Bulb
Listen
Host Jacki Lyden talks with Lynn Owens about a light bulb that has been burning for 100 years. It hangs at a fire station in Livermore, California (4550 East Avenue). The bulb, which burns at four watts with a heavy filament, was made by the now defunct Shelby (Ohio) Electric Company. Lynn Owens is the retired Division Chief of the Livermore Fire Department and Lightbulb Centennial chairman. Visit www.centennialbulb.org for more details.
