I just acquired a #2 Blizzard like this one (but not in the beautiful shape this lantern is in) and the area where the Patent #'s and date should be is quite rusty and most likely will remain unreadable even once cleaned. Lantern has outside lift, small brass filler and cap and I think a brass lift ring. With some scrubbing it appears there is no Patent or Date on the air tube. My question, do these older lanterns have Patent #'s and date? Thanks, Bob Leibold |
