SPOKANE PORTLAND & SEATTLE RAILROAD LANTERN Clear Etched SP&S Lantern Globe
Offered is a vintage piece of Western American Railroad History ; a Spokane Portland & Seattle Railroad Lantern with a Clear Etched Lantern Globe. The frame is an Adlake 3 pc. Top, single wire guard Reliable and is embossed on the shoulder of the lid SP&S. The lantern frame is in excellent condition; clean metal, stands straight and has no pitting, major dents, bent, broken or missing parts. There appears to be a repair to the inside of the dome but it is only visible when the upper retainer is removed and doesn't detract from the appearance of the lantern. It comes with a correct Adlake threaded fount and burner which takes a 5/8 flat wick. The fount doesnt appear to have any holes but shows signs of repair to the bottom.

The burner has a wick but it doesnt move properly when the adjuster is turned. These are good for display but may need to be replaced if one desires to burn the lantern. The Clear Lantern Globe is etched SP&S on one side and SAFETY FIRST on the opposite. The lantern globe is in excellent condition; free of cloudiness, chips and cracks.

There are some minor scratches from years of use on the railroad as well as bubbles and swirls from the manufacturing process. There may be some small rim nicks from use on the railroad which will not show when the globe is seated in the lantern frame. The predecessor of the Spokane Portland & Seattle Railway was first organized in 1897 as the Columbia Railway & Navigation Company.

The name changed to Portland & Seattle from 1907 to 1908. The Spokane Portland & Seattle existed from 1908 to 1970 when it became part of Burlington Northern. Burlington Northern was merged with the Santa Fe to become Burlington Northern Santa Fe or BNSF in 1997. Be sure to view all photographs closely as they are part of the item description.
