- This set of six fluorescent lamps in a lined, cloth wrap was part of a demonstration kit that General Electric sales people used to introduce the new product. When originally introduced, fluorescent lamps came in assorted colors and four sizes. The pockets in this wrap held nine lamps of 1-inch diameter and three 1.25-inch diameter. The lamps in this wrap include red, gold, two greens and two shades of white. One of the green lamps is not original to the wrap since it lacks the Mazda trade name.
