No. 72227
Company: Sears Roebuck & Company
Year: 1968Made in USA
I spent a good amount of time cleaning this unit after its nap in storage, and the Pyrex glass looked fantastic after I was done. There is a small scratch, and it took a flash photo to reveal it (see photo). The black top of this unit is in good condition overall, with minor rust, and the white pai...nt job on the interior is in excellent condition, over all. Moving down, there is wear from use on the interior, and it doesn't currently include mantles, which crumbled during cleanup. There is obvious wear in spots (paint nicks, rust) on the blue paint job on the face of the unit, as well as on the very bottom. I would have taken testing further (and purchased new mantles), but the plunger doesn't work as-is (there was no pressure with fluid inside), so that's as far as I took this.
Because of the plunger issue, I'm selling this lantern as-is.
Here are the approximate dimensions:
Height (base to top) - 14.5"
Height (base to top of handle) - 19"
Base Diameter - 6-3/4"
Glass Diameter - 5"
Lid Diameter - 8.75"
