in my best " robbie the robot" voice --warning will robertson -- danger , danger !!!!

old open element goose neck type "focused" space heater --quite dangerous & likely to cause a fire --totally unsafe by todays safety standards

From what I can recall old heater cord sheaths were wove from asbestos and or glass fibers.

We had one like that - as well as an old GE fan with exposed brass blades! The old cords are as much danger as the elements or blades! Simple technology but they have nothing like tip sensors or overheat cut-outs. Insurance company would probably love to find one of those in the ashes of your former home.
