OUR NOTES:
Our customers consider this THE definitive reference volume in the field of identifying pre-1900 lighting devices and related accessories (burners, globes, wicks, etc.) used by the railroads of that era. Yes, there is a section in the back for those who need to find on what page the Boston & Lowell Middlesex Central Railroad examples can be seen. as well as what seems like hundreds of other long gone boom and bust railroad companies of that era.
Of course, the major manufacturers are well detailed, as one would expect. A sampling of the prominent names youll find within include:
Adams & Westlake
Armspear
Barons of Ohio
Defiance Lantern
F.O. Dewey
R.E. Deitz
Embury
Peter Gray
J.H. Kelly
Keystone
Loeffelholz
Porter
Star Head
Steam Gauge
. as well as many other makers, including some of the more obscure and lesser names.
