If working, there may be an art market interested in the lamp. Years ago I worked at a silk screen shop. we used UV reactive emulsion to create the silk screen art. Basically, I would squeegee the emulsion on the silk screen and let it dry. I would receive the artwork and I would put the art in front of the coated silk screen in a glass exposure contraption. I would flip it up and start a carbon arc lamp to expose to UV light. The art work was a UV blocking film that protected the artwork area from exposure. Once exposed, I would pull the screen and rinse with water. The exposed emulsion would stay and the unexposed would rinse out with water. I would then dry the screen and it would be masked to make the screen sealed and durable for printing. If you were doing silk screen printing and that lamp works, it would be a product you might need. Of course, this was thirty years ago and now they probably have modern equipment that work better and cheaper, but it might be worth it to look into it.
