How do you keep it lit sitting sideways like that???? Don't blame the site for turning your pictures. If you take the time to read the FAQ's it is explained there at the bottom. Now I have insulted you welcome to the site.
Welcome to CW! Lamplight Farms was founded in the 1960s, I believe. They sold inexpensive metal and glass oil lamps which were made by various suppliers in the U.S. and then imported from places like Taiwan and China. I think that they are still in business in some form and their products are probably mostly made in China. Your lamp is not brass. Brass does not rust, and as far as I am aware, Lamplight Farms never sold anything made of brass. Your lamps may have been brass plated when made, but it does not look like it to me. They were plated, but not sure what the plating was made of. The bodies appear to be steel.
