It looks like the price tag is still on it. This photo has a haunting glow.

Whether intentional or not, I love the green cast to the entire image!

I was up in the air before I went on whether or for I was going to filter the fluorescent lighting or not. They ending up being filtered with a FL-D, didnt end up working in the end.

Good morning;

Most likely the string tag is an old inventory tag. Reactor B has been idle for many years now.

Victoreen was a special equipment manufacturer for many things like this back in the 1940s through the 1960s or 1970s. The Low Level Neutron Monitor looks like it was made in the early 1950s.

Enjoy; Ralph, Latte Land, Washington

I like the color, it looks... institutional.
