    Made in Milwaukee, WI. One of two variants of the lantern, this having a unique cleaning rod protruding from the vent. The other has a straight generator without cleaner.

    Generator needed rebuilding/tuning when I got it. Fount cracked while in use. Resealed with Caswells.

    Surprisingly light weight, but still feels solid.

    Another one of my proud made in Wisconsin items.
