I have a few 4' UV/Black light florescent tubes if that helps.
Don't ask why.

If a small FL/black light will work, or light bulb for that matter, every Party packagers type place has them out now for Halloween.

You still have velour posters on the wall?
Pre printed or Doodle art?

Where's the lava lamp?
