General Electric (GE) Vintage Red Plastic Plug-In Night Light

This item is a vintage circular night light manufactured by General Electric. It is constructed from a vibrant orange-red molded plastic housing with a flat back and a rounded front profile. The back of the device features two non-polarized, brass-toned metal prongs intended for a standard North American Type A electrical outlet. Emblazoned on the plastic backing are several raised molded markings, including the General Electric logo (GE in a circle), the text 'GENERAL ELECTRIC', '1/4 W' (wattage), '125V' (voltage rating), the 'UL LISTED' hallmark, and the manufacturing code '924B'. The plug includes a central recessed area likely intended for a screw or mounting component. Physically, the item shows signs of age-related wear, including fine surface scratches, minor scuffing on the plastic, and a slight oxidation or patina on the metal prongs. The craftsmanship is typical of mid-to-late 20th-century mass-produced electrical consumer goods, utilizing durable injection-molded plastics. This style suggests a period of manufacture between the 1960s and 1980s. While functional in appearance, the overall condition is consistent with a used household utility item stored in a standard environment.
