Petromax glass globe I.D

Hello,

Could anyone please provide further details? Someone is selling these, I haven't seen that drawing (castle) on them before.

Thanks

 

Some info in this post
Petromax 821E (E&G)

 

Thanks ROBBO55,

I just found out those measurements (122×122) fit Hasag 50, 55A, 51& Primus 1020.

 

Hello Adolfo,

after the war, the administration of the Auer company remained in Berlin. However, production was reestablished in Bad Gandersheim in 1948.
The heat-resistant Auer P 40 glass was introduced in 1952.
The image that can be seen on the glass is the collegiate church in Bad Gandersheim.

Best regards,
Jörg

 

I didn't know that .
Great post, , @Jörg Wekenmann

It's a real privilege to have such a knowledgeable historian in the forum.

 

Is there a Petromax model that uses a 122 x 122 globe?

 

Hello Nils,

The box says: ‘CAMERCO’
CAMERCO was a German brand for various petroleum lamps that was introduced in 1910.
After 1945, this company continued to exist under the name:
Lampen- und Glasindustrie (Lamp and Glass Industry). The CAMERCO brand continued to be used, among other things, for pressure lamps that were purchased. Originally, glasses with this logo were probably in this box.


When it was empty, it was reused.

Best regards,
Jörg

 

Thanks for that Jörg. I didn't know the relevance of the Camerco name. I assumed the Petromax branded glass was 122 x 122.

 

I don't know about a Petromax lantern that uses a 122 x 122 mm globe. That's more usual for Hasag, old Aida, partly old Standard and similar lanterns like Radius.

 

Hello,

Fantastic information!
