Dressel Railroad Train Arlington NJ 4 Way Switch Antique Lantern Light. This lantern is an estate find and the metal portions are in excellent condition. All four lenses are there and include 2 red lenses, 1 green lens, and 1 amber lens.
The amber lens has had some melting presumably from having a hot light bulb behind it or even a flame behind it. The amber lens, however, is still intact and still looks good but the melted spot is obvious. Take notice of the lens guard grills. Most lanterns do not have this feature. The piece has been re-painted at one point or another and has numerous scuffs and wear, but that just seems to add to it's great look. There is a slot on the bottom of the inside and would be easy to install a light. Just a simple lamp kit from a hardware store would be great with it! I have demonstrated in the first picture of the listing what the lantern looks with a light by placing a light behind one lens area (light is not included). The piece stands about 8 inches tall, is about 10 inches wide, and weighs 8 pounds 3 ounces.
