The future of street lighting is Induction, not nasty HPS lights or cr@ppy LED lights!
Preheat CFL's should make a comeback!

I can help. DA would translate into April '65. They are nice fixtures. FYI your fixture is called the M-250R. The original M-250 was a 250w version of the M-400 with a polycarbonate refractor. The 70s GE fixture was the M-250R1. Hope this helps!
