Got a few lanterns today off of craigslist today, paid $20 for the lot.

From left to right: 4/49 228D, 10/52 228E, 12/47 242C & one marked 742.4? on a tag, attached a photo of it by itself. Anyone know what this one is?




Also a couple pictures of the 1955 200a I just finished...

Oh well, I was hoping those would last until after Christmas, but glad to see they went to a good home.

Just found out what the other is after cleaning the tag off. It is a 1934'ish Prentiss Wabers Sears Jr. 742.47 Model. anyone know what globe this thing was supposed to use? Info I found said they didn;t come with a globe, it was purchased seperately?

Good score. Nice collection and all from one place! My Craigslist has lanterns going for Ebay prices, so I don't buy any there.

Nice finds! I love the Preway lanterns. They will run on Kerosene as well as Coleman fuel.

A few days ago there was a CL add for 2 lanterns and they also was asking Efleace amounts. But the add was gone in a couple of days. Was not I that bought them. The lanterns was not that special. One was a 228 but to new for what I want. I want a hight hat. A 228D with nickel fount, or a 228B. Just my wishing.

I have my 220D ( birthday lantern ) burning right now. Past several weeks I seem to burn a lantern for a a few hours every night. Need to find some pump kerosene.
