LanternDescription
Electric lantern made of metal and has a cylindrical shape. The top of the lantern opens on a hinge and latches shut on the front, and has components on the inside for the battery and light bulb. The sides of the lantern have attachments for the handle, which loops upward and has a thicker metal or rubber grip. The bottom of the lantern body has a grate over the opening, which likely is designed to protect the bulb. Below the lantern is a base consisting of four spokes that extend off of the body and connect to a metal ring.Acquisition
