Lake Shore & Michigan Southern Railway A&W Lantern w Cracked Cast Yellow Globe:
$75.00

This is a Lake Shore & Michigan Southern Railway lantern.
The maker is Adams & Westlake. This is a wire bottom frame with two round horizontal guards. It has a cast LS&MSRY globe that is the palest possible yellow (amber?) color.
This globe is also cast with Corning\'s CNX mark AND around the top PATENTED DECEMBER 30 1902 (but I can\'t read the full number).
IMPORTANT: This globe has a tight crack (nowhere near either top or bottom rim) that loops around through some of the casting. PLEASE LOOK CLOSELY AT OUR PICTURES. Also, there is a surface hit/bruise (SEE OUR LAST PICTURE - it is to the left of the \"L\" and does NOT show in a front display). CONDITION: The frame is stamped LS&MSRY around the top of the lid, but the letters are smallish (about 3/8 inch tall) and the metal color makes them harder to read. There is allover light surface rust. The handle is not original, a prior owner replaced it. IMPORTANT - This round wire bottom on this lantern sits perfectly flat on the table top BUT does lean slightly to one side. The globe retainer and thumb latch are both present. The fount is complete with its burner, and the wick raiser turns, BUT the fount is stuck in the frame.
