vintage bakelite hardware lot, antique electrical outlets & switches, industrial salvage & old stock

Large collection of vintage bakelite and early plastic electrical fittings, switches, outlets, etc.. Most are used / salvage pieces, though a couple are new old stock. This whole lot is all out of the estate of a 'junkie', untested, as found.

Some of these have some rust to the metal, or a dulled finish to the old brown bakelite. (We have no idea what causes or caused this, and have left these alone - though perhaps a cleaning or steel wool would help?)
