954309 I don't have a lantern per say, but I did score a 2 gallon glass container used to carry your kerosene in. It sets in a heavy gauge wire which is chain mailed ( I believe that's how describe that type of wire weaving )together. The screw on cap on the bottle says it was manufactured by Ohio Lantern Co.. Pat. dates of July 1890,Mar.1894, April 1895,Oct.1895. Have been trying to find more info on this but not having much luck. I hope you can provide something for me. Thank you, Dale H.
