Vintage Perko Port and Starboard Sidelights. These were probably used on a cruiser and probably date to the’30’s to’50’s. They are made of stamped brass with the original glass lenses. They could be used on an antique boat or be repurposed as a cool nautical decoration or lake house light. Sale is for both lights. These were donated to the Finger Lakes Boating Museum and all funds go to help ongoing programs. Condition of the lights is good. The chrome is not bad and would benefit with more polishing. The starboard (green) glass is perfect, the. Port glass had a couple of small chips, but no cracks. The housing on the port light has a small crack (see picture).
