    I think it is a Frankie. Appears to have a Handlan Kero vent, but can't seem to determine rest. The vent is for the T.R.R.A. of St Louis. Handlan made their Keros. A friend bought it. I'm stumped.

    I determined the vent to be a Handlan kero railroad lantern vent. Thanks.

    Have a look on the baffle plate
    By the look of that valve my guess it’s a Sunshine Safety Lamp Company (earlier version of the scarce F124 mentioned by colman54)
    If so it’s not a stretch to find the correct parts to complete it

    This is from the 1933 Sunshine Products catalogue detailing F124. The model was sold from 1922 on so there were doubtless minor changes in the globe cage and baffle during the 12 years or so but I agree that is what this lantern seems to be. ::Neil::

    Thank you. I will let my friend know. Might even see if I can get it from him.

    If I can get my friend to sell to me. I might need help in finding the vent and ring for it. Looks like Q99 gen?

    If it takes the AGM “coil” generator, Old Coleman Parts had some a while back.
