High bid $90.00

Status: Sold

Two Dressel lanterns from the East Coast: one with NJC embossed on the shoulder, and one with MCRR on the shoulder. The New Jersey Central lantern has a slightly bent wire guard; otherwise, both lantern bodies are in good shape with some light rust. Both lanterns have their burner pots and founts. The two red globes are a Fresnel and a Kopp. The Fresnel has some mild chipping off the bottom rim, and the Kopp has the usual mild chipping and wear along its rims.
