Hi Karli. This was intriguing... What's the story behind it? Why did they choose to put the letters backwards on this lantern?
I think by myself that they had problems with the name HASAG for their exported lamps. At that time ,in the 1950s, the brand HASAG was protected by a patent. So they changed their name from HASAG to GASAH, but I don't think for a long time.
I suspect a kind of special edition for the Arab countries, read it from the right to the left. Hasag sold to various countries. But I can not give any proof. Erik
I will have disagree here. as a right to left reader/writer Latin alphabet is always read left to right.
