This lantern is a copy of Ditmar model 506. Made in Szeged Hungary probably in the 1950s. I don't have a model number for this lamp. It is a curious beast because the globe cage, Hood and bail handle are all aluminium. The hood is a two piece which is located on two pegs in the cage top. The tank on this is badly stress cracked and I have lined it with POR-15 so it can be pressured and will work but I would not like to run it at full pressure or for very long. I guess it was rated at 300 cp and when I do run it the light is good and bright.
Hello , I have 3 pieces of this lantern too. Unfortunately all from them missing is mantle's nozzle. You or something else know this nozzle's diameter and other dimensions or type? I hope you understood what i writed, sorry my english is very weak
