This lamp is stamped Akron Gas Lamp Co.

Akron's Model 105G chandelier lamp with shades as original
provides light and warmth in Randall Adams's home
on a winter night.
Randall, who restored the lamp,
learned that it once hung in a speakeasy
(a bar that served alcoholic beverages during Prohibition) in Nevada.

The Akron Lamp Co. also made a Model 106G bracket lamp.
The same ventilator and mica globe were used on the Model 103 lantern.
The lamp on the right is not typical as it lacks the nickel plating
and support pegs for the fount.
It is also hung by a keyhole tab on the back, not a ring.
