    I am a collector of many types of antiques, and found this Dietz lantern at an estate sale in NJ. After trying to research it, I found that I can't find any like it on the Internet. It has 2 handles, locking cage, and is made of copper. The globe says D-lite, but the lantern does not have a number mark. The cage is like the ones on the blizzard lanterns, but the style of body is different. Please help me identify this extremely rare and unique lantern. Thank you!
