    This little one one came in a lot of 60+ lanterns.
    At least there was something to make it worth it. 20240428_112908.jpg 20240428_112922.jpg 20240428_112931.jpg 20240428_112954.jpg

    Attractive design. A mica globe that’s a frustum of a cone is an unusual variation.

    Frustrum… that’s a word I’ve not heard for a long time.

    @Dean D

    That looks like a sold little lantern.


    Cheers

    @Dean D very nice :thumbup:

    @presscall I had to look up ‘Frustrum’ :doh: :)

    @paul m it may be the same size as the 711 types but im not sure if that is much help:doh:..

    It’s got the Turner flying saucer hood as well!

    cheers

    Same lantern as 711 but Nickel over black makes it model 751. I don't think I have seen another so a real nice find. ::Neil::
