Antique American Lafrance & Foamite
Corporation Kerosene Lantern made by
Dietz.
The tank reads: King Fire Dept.
Elmira , N.Y.
The globe is a 2H Dietz Fit Z All
Loc Nob
It has some cracks where the
uprights meet the tank and
would need to be resoldered to
be strong again. (See Pics)
It is untested and
has no wick but, I don't
see why it wouldn't
work if you chose to
use it.
The patent date no longer is visible.
It measures about 18 1/2 inches tall
including handle and
8 inches wide
This lantern is in in very good condition
for its age and shows very well.
It has been blasted and
replated at some point. Please
view all pics for condition details,
as I consider them part of the description.
Thank you!
