Lot #18: Vintage Mor-Power 6-Volt Emergency Road Safety Light — Canadian Tire House Brand — c. 1970s

A wonderfully characterful piece of vintage Canadian automotive safety equipment, this Mor-Power emergency light unit is built around a 6-volt lantern battery housing (model 65-1058, 6 Volts) in bold red and silver livery — instantly recognizable as a Canadian Tire house brand product from the 1970s. The unit features two large swivelling sealed-beam spotlight heads on chromed articulated arms, adjustable to direct light where needed, plus two small red dome warning/hazard lights — the kind of thoughtful, all-in-one roadside emergency kit that lived in Canadian car trunks for decades. Two control knobs on the top panel operate the lights independently. The design is pure 1970s utility-meets-style — chunky, red, chrome-trimmed, and built to last. Whether it still works is another matter entirely (the battery inside is almost certainly long dead and the seller cannot confirm functionality), but as a display piece, a prop, a garage decoration, or a starting point for a restoration, it's a genuinely striking object. Condition: Shows age-appropriate wear — some oxidation and paint loss to the chrome reflector housings, wear to the battery casing. The overall structure appears intact and complete. Battery status unknown — sold strictly as-is and untested. A standard 6-volt lantern battery (4R25 type, still widely available) could be used to test functionality if desired. A nostalgic survivor from the golden age of Canadian Tire catalogue shopping — the sort of thing that doesn't turn up very often. Pickup category timeslot {A}
