There's a guy in ND who recently contacted me about selling his island light like yours pictured..I'll email you the link.

Here's a nice REVERE brand Sunoco Blue Porcelain island light fixture w/matching porcelain blue spots,that I recently got up &amp; running...Like wrestling an octopus.

I bought three Revere fluted poles from another collector friend in North Dakota a couple years ago and dragged them home to restore. At the time I paid $450 each for them (unrestored) and that was a smoking deal with porcelain shades included. Shades alone go $250 to $500 depending on condition. Poles with the three or five bulb light fixture atop the shade, I have seen them go $1500 each in unrestored condition and they are very heavily sought by oil and gas collectors. You may get lucky and find a lone shade for $300-$500 depending on condition? I'll keep an eye out for you.

These are the 3 that I restored and put on the pump island in my garage. The wireless remote turns all the lights on/off which is a nice touch.

I thank you and all who help here. Cool stuff that I am addicted to. As far as finding a light, I subscribe to the theory that &quot; every once and awhile a blind hog finds an acorn.&quot; Forgive me, I am an Appalachian. That means, with a little luck, I may stumble on to one I can afford?

Deals are still out there. Just start searching craigslist and maybe use a Tempest search on Revere Lights to find the deal that's right for you.

Fact is, they were used all over the US and are still pretty abundant out there.

Do you have a preferred color?
I've personally seen em in Blue,Red,Green,White,Yellow &amp; Cream (Beige).
If you do find one,make sure it's not painted.
A few are painting them to customers desire,then saying they're authentic.
Porcelain doesn't scratch off.
