Default look what i found

Hello Pappy was out in the shed and found this wick top, has flip top lid and will fit a regular fruit jar, it has Queen Ann no 2 on the flip top part, not sure where i got it now but was wondering if it had any value, have not seen any that fits a fruit jar around here, thanks ..............jack

I've seen a couple of those before.. Don't recall how old they are but I have definately seen them. I know where seven are as I type this. I will try to call in the morning and ask my mother the history of them. You see, my mother collects lanterns and she knows them about as well as most I reckon.

Default Lantern

JACK,The entire lamp if it were intact would be worth $75.00-$120.00. I LOVE old lanterns and have sold quite a few...Wish you had the rest of it. The part you have would probably sell for about $20.00 to someone who needs to complete a lamp....Late 1800's....PAPPY
