Description
This is a Milwaukee Road (Chicago Milwaukee and St Paul Railroad) C.T. Ham 1893 patent brass top switchmans lantern. The patent date is 12/26/1893. This is a rare #39 brass top model, double wired, single guard. Outstanding condition for its age with lots of good clean metal! There is a solder repair to the clip that helps the fount snap on and off. Twist off style fount, with a correct brass burner. Burner will need a new wick. The globe is a clear, cast Corning CNX globe with the Corning CNX logo cast into it, as well as CM&STP RY cast into it. The globe has several cracks in it, and chips near the top rim, but is intact, and these early globes are hard to find in any condition. Lid opens and closes properly.
