Mystery Mfg.
I bought this at a local thrift store for a Dollar
I don't need it but i thought Heck for a buck? But... in trying to research the Mfg. and product I came up with nothing? clever how they used an off the shelf electric connection box it's completely sealed in epoxy so only the wires are seen. And the wires look to be more from the 110v family then 12v. |

well, to me, that looks like a house hold electrical junction box made to look like a flasher unit. lol
I am sure it is home made. It appears to me to be anyway. No big loss if you paid $1.00 ! lol

I am not familiar with the company. However, I do investigate things so: Looks like Jackman Co is not available anymore. The place is a hair salon now and I cannot find anything more on it but it might be one of the first wig-wag systems in existence. The person that this address was registered to also has been an inventor of specialized bullet molds too from around 1973. Seems like he was also an amateur radio operator too and he should be getting up in age.
That might spark something else for you. Good luck. |

I could Not find much of anything? I have found this to be the case with most all Pre-internet company's. Post- internet their dna seems to linger even after the company goes belly up. Pre-internet...the best we could hope for is that someone talks about it. on a blog you know like someone buys an item at a thrift store? Im bringing it back to the store first thing Monday. n getting my buck back! |

The shop that I used to work for made our own flashers, then North American made them for us and we stuck the stickers on, and then Sound Off private labelled their flashers with our name. Sometimes small shops make things.
