Item Details

Description

This is an early Dressel marker lamp. The lamp is marked H S & S Co on the tag. We have been told this is for the Hall Signal and Switch Company. It is likely they had contracts for signal installations with Dressel and lamps were supplied to them when a signal or semaphore was first installed. Has one clear lens and a correct fount and long stem burner. Intact peephole and glass on the door and the lamp. Nice piece!
