ATLAS 2ft 40w Daylight - Lit

ATLAS 2ft 40w daylight, manufactured April 1972 and was rescued from a lamp bin some time ago. As you can see here it's working fine and looks like it should put in many more hours provided it doesn't go contaminated or the end fall off.

Luckily this wasn't in my custom made 2ft 40w fitting when one of the ballasts went short circuit and fried the tube that was in it at the time (Philips Natural).
