    Every now and then you may strike gold or being lucky or being on the right spot in the right time period.
    Any way, today I got this beauty well packed: Ehrich & Graetz, Petromax 821 Baby nos, with some extra's.
    It is strange to find such an old lantern with the company sales label still attached. Only minus point is that the globe is split (I knew). Straight vertical crack. So if somebody has an E&G, Petromax Baby 200HK globe which needs a lantern I am interested.

    It just goes to show that these little gems do come to light from time to time as long as we keep looking.
