LanternDescription
Large kerosene lantern with a circular base. The base has a fuel cap on the front and a burner in the center. The burner consists of a roud knob, a metal ring with circular vents, and a dome-shaped emitter. The emitter has a slot in the top for the wick. A glass chimney sits on top of the burner and is enclosed by a large, cone-shaped reflector with an opening at the front. The reflector is attached to the larger frame of the lantern, which has a rectangular shape. It holds the cap to the chimney, which hangs down from a cylindrical tube, and also has a large, rectangular metal plate on the left side. The plate is curled at the bottom and has a metal wire tab to hold objects. There is a looped metal handle attached to the top of the lamp.Inscription/Signature/Marks
