edison sparkplugs

[gridleak]

Just got several boxes of nos Edison/Splitdorf plugs and hope someone here has an application or cross reference chart for them. The boxes are numbered 36 37t 4 2 3.

They sound interesting and I like to collect old sparklers.

What style are they and thread size ? Wondering just how old they are, 7/8", 3/4" or pipe thread [tapered].

Can you post a pic of these oldies?

pictures? sort of. Got about six boxes various sizes.

What a delightful treasure you have there!

Those are pretty cool.
If I had a high point car and was putting it into judging I would think that "Edison" on my spark plugs would be a big plus, exspecilly if it was a high point Model T.
I'm just guess at that.
But those are still cool...great find.

Nice plugs and they make a nice display item, but for a high point judging you'd want the original type X with a pipe thread for the Model T, and for the Model A you'd want original Champion 3 X plugs with the rounded top on the 3.

But they look cool Tom, I guess that proves that knowing and having a judging standards book would really help with judging.
Which also proves that just because something is old and "looks cool" does not mean it's correct.

But on the other hand...I'm old, and "look cool" and I'm always correct.
