FE embossed nicely on the bell of this 1913 Adlake

been in service for a long time in this frame.
Beautiful metal on this one!
The
globe is just an outstanding cast. Among the Santa
Fe cast globes, this one will be hard to match

cross logo on this corning hallmarked globe. Good

get any finer than this!

BURLINGTON
CEDAR RAPIDS & NORTHERN
Item
# 12772
Adams
& Westlake patent 1889 ADAMS frame marked
BCR&N in large letters on the lid. This rare
frame is in excellent original condition with
no pitting and smooth surface that is uncleaned
and untouched. As with most 89's there are a couple
of loose solder joints but not bad. There is one
dent and minor separation at the top of the globe
seat that is an easy fix. The fuel font is from
a model 1897 but good fit and the patina matches
so it appears to have been there a long time.
The
globe is a clear etched free blown 5 3/8"
extended base globe marked CRI&PRR in big
letters. one tiny chip out of the extended base
keeps it from being perfect. Super nice etching.
You'll search a long time to find another BCR&N
lantern for sale these days. One this nice is
sure to command a lot of attention.

FRISCO
in large letters on the lid of this Handlan round
top tall globe lantern. The frame has nice dark
uncleaned patina overall with some mild spots
of surface rust. Excellent original condition
overall. No issues with the fuel font or font
cup. There is some rust on the bottom and sides
of the pot but no pin holes at all. Dark rust

minor surface chip still tight to the bottom lip
of the globe seen in the last photo. A great pair
with catchy eye appeal.

SAN
ANTONIO & ARANSAS PASS
Item
# 12381
Beautiful
Handlan round top tall globe frame marked in large
letters SA&AP on the lid. This Texas line
is difficult to find any hardware from, let alone
a lantern with such great tinning. This frame
remains nearly 80% tinned and in excellent original
condition. The font may not be factory original
but appears to have been with the frame for a
long while as it matches perfectly.
The
globe is a red original Corning globe with hallmark.
Although it appears a collector has added the
SA&AP marking to the globe, this is a very
attractive lantern and if you are fortunate enough
to have an original marked globe, this would be
the perfect compliment.
