Found this one in Newark, NJ on 2nd Ave between N12th and N 13th streets. As of August 2017 it is still located at this spot. I thought it was a Model 20 but it looks kinda small. Any thoughts?

I don't know why but I find this 2 to be incredibly pleasing aesthetically. Probably because it's a vintage siren with some vintage glass insulators nearby (another one of my soft spots)

Found this in Bern, KS. I'm thinking it's a 5/7. https://goo.gl/sWgqu7

I'm guessing it is a Model 5, despite the grainy picture.

Yup that's a model B, now that I can see an inner cone in the projector.

*Correction* Inner cone is the chopper I believe, now that I've just seen a Model B test video.
