Description

 contacted Star Head Light & Lantern & this is what they said, "That lantern you had was used in the early 1900's as a trainman lantern. It's an old kerosene lantern. They used them to read car numbers on the side of the car. There are not many of these lanterns still around so I would hold onto it."  

If for some reason, you cannot see the pictures, they are at this website: https://picasaweb.google.com/home?tab=mq
