[QUOTE="franrose, post: 2750245, member: 12120"]Hi all! Haven’t been here since early-Covid times (which seems like about 100 years). My mom’s house is just about “show-ready” for renting out, and the last few interesting things have surfaced out of the garage and storage closet... Here’s one that I need help dating, and I hope the Tool section is a good fit, otherwise I am fine to move the thread. A new-in-box Petromax lantern, looks un-used. Of course something my dad would have had! There’s no extra kit with funnel, etc., but there are extra wicks and a tiny manila envelope imprinted with ‘Britelyt’ that must have something in it - I found that last year and had no idea what it went to. The newer version of this lantern has a name badge bearing an American flag. So far, just browsing random collectors’ posts online I have been unable to find anything to ascertain the age of this. Thank you in advance for any help! Fran [ATTACH=full]278145[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]278146[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]
