Hi Frank, The "NIGHT FLASH" lantern there were only 10 made back in 1954. 5 went to Niagra Mohoke Power Corp for field experament. Gav had one in his collection. Rodger has one. Woody has one. And I have two of them. I wonder if the person who bought gavs lanterns know's what they have. Four things different about the night flasher is the wick raiser is at the bottom of the wick raiser inside the tank and the globe fits upside down and there is no markings except Dietz on the top of the lantern and the blue paint on the bottom and red on top. It's to bad they didn't make more but the barricade flashers come out in 55 to 56 and took over the idea. Steve Hillyer.
