Most of the lamps are scattered on the bottom and at the sides of the windows, where they can be seen by lookers in, and where they attract more attention to themselves than to the goods they are imperfectly lighting. The ideal window light should light the goods and not be seen while doing so. FRINK'S SPECIAL PATENT WINDOW REFLECTOR for Electric Light, lined with Silverplated Corrugated Glass, is placed in top of window near the front glass, reflecting the light inward and downward. We will consider it a favor if architects will send us the names of parties using or about to use an imitation of this reflector, and by whom This makes a very desirable window reflector, as the reflectors are put out of the way and concealed from view, at the same time concealing the direct light from the eyes of the observer, and giving a strong, even light down where wanted, thus doing away with the an noyance of a dazzling light in the eyes. We strongly recommend this style of reflector as the very best store window light in existence, and it has been adopted by leading stores in the principal cities in the United States. It is used also largely for lighting Art Galleries, Pictures, Stock Exchange Boards, Border Lights, Telephone Switchboards, etc. To get results, Reflectors should be used entire width of window, with lamps 9 or 12 inches apart, as desired. No. 2509, Plain. Frink's Electric Cluster Reflectors with three to eight lights, have solid metal frames and are lined with Over Forty Years No. 2505, Brass Band, Plain or Embossed. SPECIFIED BY LEADING ARCHITECTS AND ENGINEERS, AND EVERYWHERE USED FOR LIGHTING CHURCHES, HALLS, THEATRES, ART GALLERIES, BANKS, STORES, STORE WINDOWS, SCHOOLS, TELEPHONE SWITCHBOARDS, OFFICE AND PUBLIC BUILDINGS, ETC., ETC.
