A&W
model 1909 "ADAMS" frame marked OWRR&NCo
on the lid. The OWR&N 09 Adams model is not
only one of the earliest from the road, but is
also one of the hardest to find. 95 out of 100

which makes this one all the better given its
nearly mint condition 90+% original tinning left
on this frame with no repairs or problems. Original
fount and burner complete this frame and make
it one of the finest examples known.
This
5 3/8" cast globe has large letters OWRR&NCo
cast in a square end panel and match the rarity
of this frame. Super nice strike on the lettering
and only minor rim nicks. It'll be a while before
another one this nice comes up for sale.

Item
# 12252
Adams
& Westlake model 1897 Adams frame in nice
condition with no rust and plenty of tinning left.
This lantern has been cleaned and is in display
condition with no repairs. The twist off fuel
font on this fame comes from an Armspear lantern
of similar age and is a nice fit with a couple
of microscopic pin holes seen only when holding
up to a bright light.
The
globe in this set steals the show as it is a signal
green etched extended base globe marked "BUR
ROUTE" instead of the box logo that is more
commonly seen. The globe has no flaws and is in
beautiful condition. Very hard to find with only
a few examples in this color known in collections
today.

One
of the more unique models from Adams & Westlake
in 1909 was this Adams brass top wire bottom frame
made for the B&ORR. Embossed B&ORR and
LOCO on the lid, this frame is one of the best
condition examples we've had the opportunity to
offer. No rust or pitting and plenty of tin in
protected areas left. Comes with original pot
and burner and has no repairs, dents or dings.
The
red cast double ring logo globe is about as bold
as they come. Also cast LOCO on the reverse. Most
of these were etched LOCO if marked at all. There
is some chipping at the bottom rim that does not
show when in the lantern frame. This set is destined
to attract a lot of attention so don't miss the
opportunity.

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

all that can be found on this crystal clear specimen.

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.
