The pump is mounted incorrectly. In some lanterns, the leather is not firmly attached to the pump rod, but is mounted on a fitting that can move...
Just type "Lancaster Lanterns" here in the searchbar or in Google. It's like I already said: these are lanterns that were modified or newly made...
@Huntaholic Just look at that thread: Lancaster Lantern
That's what I thought. It looks like it had been modified by the Amish with their own globe cage construction. The stamping with the 6 digits on...
@Henry Plews That was my first thought too. A bulbous globe won't fit a Petromax globe cage.
@Huntaholic A few pictures would help us much to identify your lantern.
@presscall Did you mean 10.1 mm?
That one looks as if it had been refitted to burn gasoline. It would be interesting whether it has a positive fuel shutoff at the handwheel like...
If it had a Petromax tank you would find some stamped numbers on the bottom which indicate the date of manufacture of that part. The pump seems to...
These are GDR made 200CP lanterns manufactured by VEB Leipziger Werke (or VEB Leuchtenbau Leipzig), which are often found in Türkiye. At least the...
Maybe somebody could try to find out whether the brand GE-RI was registered in Indonesia or somewhere else in the Far East. To me, the lantern...
Or try this link to a (that?) document of Joaquim Manuel Jorge Moedas Duarte: "Casa Hipólito – História, Memórias e Património de uma Fábrica...
Mind you that these lanterns were often assembled and disassembled by various people during their lifetime, especially in the army. I got that...
That is not quite correct. Schatz and Aschwanden had local suppliers in Switzerland, who made e. g. vaporizers (both parts), mixing tubes, jets &...
These seem to pop up every now and then. They look like very close copies of Hasag 351L, but there are always the same differences (reddish...
@Camp numao That is a very good presentation of this nice little lantern. According to the catalogue sheets that are available the lantern is...
The red arrow-shaped hard rubber knob is for operating the excenter for the needle, whereas the round black fibre wheel is to operate the fuel...
I'd say that the preheating bowl has been mounted incorrectly. It does absolutely make no sense to preheat the air tube rather than the generator....
An interesting piece, and as Reinhard said: the parts don't seem to belong together, but at least they fit and give a functioning lantern. Kerolux...
You are correct: The ones that I have here with the grey or olive-green lacquered tank all have the "mushroom" shaped top of the generator (rather...
Separate names with a comma.
