[QUOTE="sabre123, post: 509898, member: 8258"]Nice find, Brad! Here's my find of the weekend. Samuel Messenger & Sons kerosene lamp with a Hinks and Sons duplex burner. Stamped brass with a weighted base. 19" tall with a 6-5/8" base. Font is about 7" in diameter. The burner has a key that, when rotated, separates the parts to facilitate lighting of the wick without the need to remove shade/chimney. Burner was hacked a bit. They retrofitted the top to use a spider/tripod shade holder. I'm not sure if I can replace just that part or not. I stole this at $30USD.
