DENVER & RIO GRANDE WESTERN TALL GLOBE RAILROAD LANTERN MATCHING AMBER GLOBE. Very nice and always desirable tall globe railroad lantern frame manufactured by Handlan, embossed on the lid "D&RGW" for the Denver & Rio Grande Western.

Original lid latch, late Handlan globe retainer assembly, single bail stiffener which is correct on this model, and proper insert font, burner embossed for Handlan AND a functioning wick. Best part of the set is the matching amber etched globe marked, "D&RGW" with "SAFETY FIRST" on the backside. Corning, "Cnx" hallmarked and in fine condition.
