1892 Santa Fe Route A&W Lantern w/Clear Cast Tall Ext. Base Corning Globe
A very hard to find 1892 Adams & Westlake lantern frame made for the AT&SF, Santa Fe Route Railway. It comes with a 5 1/4" tall extended base clear globe with a strong cast cross Santa Fe logo. It is also cast near the globes top rim "Corning". Both top and bottom rims are in near mint condition. There is one very small 1/8" factory air bubble in the glass, which is minor but must be mentioned for accuracy. The lantern frame has lots of solid metal and tin and the top lid is marked "Santa Fe Route, The Adams, Adams & Westlake Company, Chicago". The last patent date is Aug. 16, 92. It stands 10 1/4" tall. The twist off fount is in excellent condition, no pin holes, and has the correct Beacon burner. The lantern is sure to please that special Santa Fe Railroadiana collector!
