An 1895 patent, double-guard wire-bottom made by the Adams & Westlake Co., with the correct insert fount and No. 1 ratchet burner affixed. "W&L.E.RY" is nicely embossed on the lid reflector; "C2137" is stamped in adjacent. The frame appears to have been glass bead blasted. It's in real nice condition with no pitting evident. The signal green, No. 39 extended base globe is embossed "W&LE RY" in serif font and in above average relief. There is a light mold flaw at the top at the right seam. It's not a crack. The globe shows little RR use and is beautiful. Color translucence is a bit dark. The globe is a tight fit through the frame's top ring.
Condition: (Very Good).
Item Dimensions: 7" x 7" x 10 - 1/2".
