    Justrite nr 25 lantern, external pump. Fine burning lantern. Probably around 1926.

    Note the shape of the tank.

    @MrAlexxx Alex, the font is what really sets this lantern apart from some of the others.

    @AussiePete Pete, it's different. I believe this company made miners lanterns, too. Infact, it doesn't appear they produced this lantern very long. There was another similar lantern with a built on pump which was sold right along side this one.

    "Justrite" on the vent looks very classy. Beautiful lantern!
