Try this source: http://www.replacementlightbulbs.com/lampscrossreferenceg.html#GraflexSingerCorporation
Contact them, tell them what you have. They can probably supply you.

Another source: http://www.bulbland.com/default.asp

Google is a wonderful resource.

If no one responds with a bulb number then:
1. look at the socket for the bulb. it will have either an index slot in the center of the socket or different sizes for at least 1 of the 4 pins. The bulb should align so that the projected light faces the lens.
2. 21.5V - 150W, marked values.
Power=E (volts) * I (current).
I=P/E
I=150/21.5
I=6.9767 amps.

A lower voltage bulb that is the same wattage will burn out quicker than the standard bulb.
A higher voltage bulb that is the same wattage will last longer but be dimmer, lower light level output.
A higher wattage bulb at any voltage will draw more current burning the wiring or any transformer in the lamp electrical system. DO NOT use a higher wattage bulb.
A lower wattage bulb will burn brighter and possibly damage film and will burn out quickly.
