Vintage Dietz 30 Beacon Lantern

Description

UP FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION A REALLY NICE ALL ORIGINAL DIETZ NO. 30 BEACON LANTERN. HAS  THE USUAL SMALL MINOR DINGS AND SCRATCHES. PROBABLY A EARLY REPAINT. ITS ONLY MISSING THE OIL FILLER COVER. THIS LANTERN IS A PERFECT CANDIDATE FOR A RESTORATION OR LEAVE AS IS. ALL METAL IS SOLID WITH NO RUST THROUGH ONLY VERY MINAMIL SURFACE RUST. GOOD WORKING COMPLETE BURNER WITH THE RARE MAGNIFYING GLASS DOT. ORIGINAL GLOBE WITH NO CHIPS OR CRACKS. EVEN HAS THE ORGINAL WICK. THIS IS ONE OF THE NICEST UNRESTORED ORGINAL DIETZ 30 BEACON LANTERNS I'VE SEEN IN A LONG TIME BESIDES THE OTHER ONE I HAVE LISTED. BOTH CAME FROM THE SAME LOCATION UP HERE IN A NEW ENGLAND FROM A 200 YEAR OLD FARM HOUSE ATTIC. PLEASE LOOK AT ALL PHOTOS AS THIS IS YOUR BEST DISCRIPTION. PHOTOS ARE OF ALL 6 SIDES OF LANTERN.  ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE. THANKS FOR LOOKING.
