    (1 item)

    I'm trying to find out any and all information about this lamp. My Father passed away and I'm trying to help my Mother figure out what a lot of things are. Is it a carriage lamp, train lamp, auto lamp? on the bottom it says adlake non sweating alanodraft lamp. around the edge it says West Lake Co, Chicago IL June 1200-Aug 1807
    I contacted the West Lake Co. and they say there records don't go back that far. Can anyone help me?

      The mounting bracket leads me to believe a carriage or early automobile "cowel" lamp.
