NORTHERN
PACIFIC RAILWAY
Item
# 11960
Superb
quality lantern in this Northern Pacific Armspear
tall globe lantern. The frame is a 1913 patent frame
in outstanding original condition. Cleaned but has
a nice medium patina on it, no rust and very smooth.
This is a way above average frame in condition.
It has the harder to find twist off font cup that
also has a removable and drop in font in it. This
transition design is pretty hard to find examples
from and this one is certainly one of the better
ones. The globe in this lantern matches the quality
of the frame. Super strong NPRR cast lettering on
this corning style globe with rectangular panel.
If you've waited for a quality NP lantern to come
up for sale, this is the one.

on the lid of this 1909 Adlake round wire lantern

up, an easy replacement but it holds the lid fine
as is. Other than that its super nice. The globe
is a red unmarked corning style globe in very nice
condition. Harder to find quality lantern from an
Inland Empire electric line.

VIRGINIA
& TRUCKEE RAILWAY
Item
# 11955
Queen
of the shortlines. This extremely rare 1908 Adams
& Westlake ADAMS model is marked V&TRy on
the lid and is in pristine condition. Plenty of
tinning under the lid and on the lower waste area
and cage. There are absolutely no issues with the
frame at all. The globe is an original corning style
clear globe marked V&TRy in large lettering
across the middle. The globe has an unfortunate
chunk that has been glued back in place but surprisingly
does not affect the display position as it is on
the side of the base and is hard to see when the
etching is facing forward. Just an outstanding western
relic from one of the most desirable roads in the
Old West.

CHESSAPEAKE
& OHIO RAILWAY
Item
# 11954
C&ORY
on the lid of this 1913 patent Armspear lantern.
The frame has been cleaned with an abrasive blast
which removed all signs of rust or corrosion that
may have been present. It has a nice even color
and has no repairs. The frame's cage could stand
a tightening up at a few solder joints but overall
is nice and complete with original pot and burner
in excellent shape. The globe in the lantern is
just a beautiful early serif C&ORy extended
base globe. No Cnx marking on it and only minor
rim nicks. One of the strongest cast C&O globes
we've ever seen. Great addition to the collection.

100% of its original tinning intact and is rust
and dent free. Fuel font is in perfect working order.

and works great. The globe in this lantern has an
exceptionally heavy cast railroad marking CM&StPRy
in a round end panel. Minor chips on the rims is
all that can be found on this crystal clear specimen.

OREGON
SHORT LINE RAILROAD
Item
# 11620
O.S.L.
in large letters on the lid of this model 1897 Adams
& Westlake ADAMS frame. Any pre-1900 OSL lantern
is difficult to find these days and this frame is
hard to beat. Some very minor pitting in some isolated
spots but overall this frame shows smooth metal and
tinning over virtually the entire surface. The twist
off font looks to be from an early R.E. Dietz frame
but fits and fills the spot until the appropriate
A&W model can be obtained. A gorgeous uncompromised
frame in excellent condition.
The
globe in this lantern is a clear cast extended base
style marked OSL in big fat letters. Very few of these
globes exist in any condition. The only thing keeping
this globe from being unbelievable is the impact cracks
emanating from the top rim on opposite the lettering.
The globe displays very nicely and again, fills the
spot until an upgrade can be obtained.
Any
OSL extended base frame or globe is hard to come by
and this set certainly has the potential to be a top
shelf addition.
