Home today baking bread, listening to Radu Lupu and nursing a pulled oblique muscle (yoga injury?). I've been cleaning, reconditioning, re-wicking, etc., the 20, or so oil lamps that I have squirrelled away in preparation for the next New Madrid earthquake or zombie apocalypse, WCF, and remembered that I had a couple of lamps stored away in the back of a linen closet, but didn't remember what they were. One was a Plume & Atwood Dorset Div. Thomaston, Conn lamp, green painted milk glass with a milk glass shade and the other was this unused Fostoria coin glass lamp, 10" h x 6" w, ABCO #1 burner. I think I put it away to save it from my cats. Anyway, I checked and no one has posted one on this site, so here it is. Now it goes back in the closet for another 15 years! BTW, the brown smudge in the last photo is a nice 1941 Finnish VKT m39 mosin that has definitely been to war. Built on an 1892 Sestroryetsk Mosin receiver.
