HANDLAN RAILROAD LANTERN Marked GM&N AS IS ~ AS FOUND ~ NO RISK ~ sale

This GM&N lantern is one of several Old Railroad items I am saleing off here on so check out my other sales if you are a Railroad Item Collector. No doubt someone has repainted this lantern with a coat of gray paint. It is embossed in the metal on the top HANDLAN and ST. LOUIS. It also has the GM&N mark as shown in the photographs. Whatever was used to illuminate the lantern is missing. The inside of the lantern is empty and also it is clean without any paint or rust on the inside where a burner would be. One of the glass lens is a blue-green color and the other glass lens is clear. Both lens are thick, heavy glass. The clear lens has a chip on the lower right corner as shown in the close-up picture that I have included. The metal retainers that hold the lens in place is rusted as you can see in the pictures but there are no other rust areas like this on the lantern that I can see.

There is a whole lot of lantern here that I know very little about and I am sure you collectors have figured that out. It is a little over 15 inches tall and according to my digital scale weighs in at a tad under 11 pounds. Of course, the wall mounting brackets are included.

That part on the bottom of the lantern that looks like a faucet handle in the photo above can be rotated and a curved sheet of metal on the inside of the lantern will rotate and block out either the clear glass lens or the blue-green glass lens.

Be sure to use the ZOOM IN feature when viewing the photographs stored here on in the upper left portion of this page. Age unknown. Again, check out the L&N adjustable wrench made by Bemis & Call and the L&N RR Pick in my other sales. I can combine shipping to save you money. PAYMENT:
