Hi CPL friends. This is my hanging lamp. The superior manufacturing co. usa fuel use gasoline. i have not up-light mantle. Unusual style frost globe. it has got six air hole. flame is 100cp . thanks. Gunsoo
Very interesting lamp. I wonder if the hole in the middle of the flame spreader is for a Tito Landi style mantle holder?
No, it is not. It is to reduce the flame surface just to the border and it is not a hole but a rivet to hold a bigger piece under the net.
Thanks for the explanation. It is always good to learn something new. Sounds like a sensible idea as well. The mantle is around the edge, so that's where you need the flame.
Nice and complete lamp. I have got a couple of these gravity fed lamps but I had to restore botth with some non original parts to bring them to a condition that just seems original; the second one works but it is still waiting for restoration. You can look for more information on these lamps on www.lampguild.org
Hi Nill and Juan. i use asbestos fork style for made flame. and i can't find another style mantle hanging part old cataloque. i wish good restore and good working lamp Juan thanks good mention.
You only need a new upright mantle as the rest of the lamp seems to be ok. Look for it on ebay: there are many there, as this one! mantle for sale Ask the seller to check if the diameter on the base fits on your burner and that´s all. Juan. PS. for sure you considered this: it is a gasoline lamp which tank is above the flame so check very carefully for leakages and light it on the outside.
And would you sell some to me? I use to adapt regular mantles but just seldom I can do a good job. Juan
Hi Paul. wow surprise news. yes i know many kinds of up-light mantles very high price on ebay. if you okay, i would some buying your mantle. thanks Gunsoo
