Hi all, This is the gasoline gravity fed No.451 "Ornamental One-Light Pendant" lamp, made of the Sun Vapor Stret Light Co. Canton OH, around 1905. The brand "Sun" was a copyright for the Sun Vapor from 1902, so a production of this type of lamps from that year into the 10,s and maybe also the 20,s. Equipped with a 100 CP upright mantle burner, emanating from an old 1889/1991 incandescent burner patent by Harry C. Campbell. In the 1905 Sun Vapor catalogue it is said that the company is a licensee of that original Campbell patent. This lamp needed some burner parts and the gallery with the burner nose gauze and the shade and chimney holder. It also needed a thorough clean up. These type of burners are often good runners and easy to handle. In the lighting try it gave a good performance. /Conny 1889/1891 Campbell patent …. The One-Light Pendant lamp together with the "Romeo" lamp….
My hat's off to you again, Conny! Beats me how you keep on finding all these obscure lamps and then managing to get them going again...
