NOS! MCM Vintage Steel Triple Toggle Switch Plate Cover “Antique
Copper” USA by Acorn
This listing is for one
(1) vintage metal Three Toggle Switch Plate Cover made in the USA by Acorn
Manufacturing Co., #0313AC. The “Antique
Copper” wall plate cover is new old stock, circa 1950-60’s. This decorative steel light switch cover
measures approximately 6 3/8” by 4 ½” and comes in the original unopened carded
or bagged packaging with 6 screws.
Slight variations in the finish can be expected as these were hand
finished and some pieces are much more antiqued than others. Your choice of carded or bagged, there seems
to be little if any difference. These well-crafted
mid-century modern switch plates graced the walls of many of the finest custom
homes built in the 1960’s and 1970’s.
Replace those paint covered receptacle covers with new 50-year-old, high
quality, steel originals! Several styles
in the same finish are available as shown in the photos. Please The Other Man's Store for
the complete selection!
I recently purchased
over 500 vintage Acorn Manufacturing receptacle covers from the liquidation of
an 80-year-old neighborhood hardware store in Northeast Philadelphia. These high-quality, American made outlet
plates, switch covers, and receptacle covers were manufactured in Mansfield,
Massachusetts in the 1950’s and the 1960’s.
Acorn Manufacturing today is a 3rd generation family owned and run
business and has long been known as the “Cadillac” of reproduction colonial
hardware. These decorative steel plate covers
come in various sizes and finishes including Old English, Antique Copper, Pewter,
Cherry, Birch, Walnut, Dead Black, and White Ash.
