Offered is a vintage General Electric Appliance Socket.  The socket is clean and in good condition.  It takes a plug with prongs at 90° at a distance of 1/2 inch.  It has no ratings printed or stamped.  The socket is an unusual hard-wired type, removed from a giant rug smoothing iron.   The socket has wiring lugs on the back-some old wiring remains in place-it is of a heavy gauge.  Suitable for various early appliances or fans.  Probably good for 125VAC, 15 Amp.  Mounting is via a flange with holes at 2 inches on center. Probably 1920's vintage.  Brown-painted front is in good condition, it has a chip in the painted surface. Pick up the old socket for your own equipment or collection.  NO RESERVE!! Thanks for looking.
