(A) An Adlake Model 22 lamp with a clear lens and missing fount and burner assembly inside. Application of this Model 22 unit is unknown in North America, so this might be a European lamp. There are two brass tags affixed to the lamp citing patents in many countries. One of the brass tags has "LAMP MANUFACTURING AND RAILWAY SUPPLIES LTD, LONDON." Unit shows original black paint. Condition: Very Good, 8.0. (B) A Dietz Orient motor lamp. Lamp is embossed "AM. EX. CO." (American Express Company). The lamp is complete with fount and burner, and has old original dark red paint. There is a small dent on the rear panel. Condition: Very Good, 8.0. (C) A three-sided brass lamp with provision for hanging on a vertical clevis. The fount and burner unit is intact, as well as a silvered internal reflector that is mounted on the door. There are three lenses - red, clear and green - and a hanging loop on top. This is probably a marine piece. The unit shows heavy tarnish. Condition: Good, 6.0. (D) A cold-blast Feuerhand No. 75 small salesman's sample, with a red globe that is etched "ATOM 75." This unit shows some original tin plating, but has mostly tight, dark patina now. (E) A brass fount, hallmarked on the bottom "Loeffelholz & Co. Milwaukee." This fount belongs to a wall-mounted unit, as seen elsewhere in this sale. The brass has medium tarnish and the unit is complete with a No. 1 ratchet burner. Condition: Good, 7.0. (F) A fount and burner unit for a wall sconce. This piece has a small oil fount with a No. 1 round wick burner affixed and is mostly nickel plated, with a brass bottom acorn finial that has a hole drilled in it.
Condition: (Good).
