<p>[QUOTE="Steersman, post: 16613, member: 239"]This isn't much help but the Phillips-head screws of course mean fairly recent manufacture. The base looks like it could have had a candle-holder, which was locked in with a twist. Or it could have been mounted in a similar fashion on a yard pole-type light.</p><p><br /></p><p>If a candle was used, there'd likely be some soot inside. A small electric bulb would work too. I think it'd look pretty cool lit up.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
