Status: Sold

R.R. Signal Lamp & Lantern Co. lantern with NC RY embossed on the shoulder, possibly for Northern Central. Patent dates are stamped into the chimney top, but rust and pitting make them unreadable. Aside from mild rust and pitting, lantern body is in good shape. Burner pot and fount are present. The tall clear extended base globe has NCR etched on the front and a faint Macbeth No. 220 Pearl Glass mark above the etching. Globe has a roughly 2" by 1" piece missing from its bottom edge.
