Not at all our usual fare, but I couldn’t let this survivor of the B&O Railroad go unnoticed.
The glass is thick and full of bubbles and etched with the railway name.
What a romantic time it conjures up of people signaling and waving thru trains, en route to distant destinations. Undoubtably electronic devices are safer but it’s sad the human touch is being lost to us.
I’m not an expert but I believe this lantern would have been unpainted originally. That aside, it is complete, including wick, and in remarkably good condition.
You’ll find it at Pine Hills.
