The base of this lamp is stamped San Diego Lamp & Mfg. Co.,
San Diego, California and Patented 1924.
It shares a burner and gas preheater
with a lantern model made by this company.
The valve to the right is from a Coleman lamp.
The lamp is in Bob Hitchcock's collection.

These are M1001 twin mantle "Kerosafe" kerosene table lamps
made by Thomas Manufacturing Co., Dayton, OH.
The lamps on the left and right are in Neil McRae's collection.
The lamp in the center is in Jerry Engbring's collection.
Neil was able to get one of his three models of this lamp running (right image).

Neil McRae has not learned the model for this Kerosafe lamp by Thomas Mfg.
but notes that it is similar to M1007.
This lamp is unusual in having a brass-sided, rather than steel,  fount
and a nickel-plated, cast iron handle.

Thomas Manufacturing also made this outdoor bracket lamp, Model M1012.
This Kerosafe lamp, in Neil McRae's collection,
also uses kerosene as the brand name implies.
Note that the fount lacks feet to sit on a flat surface.
Neil notes that the founts made by this manufacturer are usually steel;
on this lamp the steel has rusted and the nickel plating was lost so he painted the fount black..

The Tures Lighting System arc lamp,
manufactured in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Neil McRae, who took this image of the lamp in Jerry Engbring's collection,
is not convinced that this lamp burner goes with this fount.

This lamp may also have been manufactured by Tures.
It is in Jerry Engbring's collection;
image by Neil McRae.

The burners on these unmarked lamps are nearly identical
to the burner on a Tures lantern, so we are reasonable sure that they
were made by Tures Mfg., Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
These lamps, in Jerry Engbring's collection, lack the shade and filler cap.
The fount and handle (right) are as on an AGM P66 lamp
The unique vertical valve operates a tip cleaner much the same
as on a Coleman L220 lantern with a T88 generator.
This lamp also has unusual horizontal air tubes.

Turner Brass Works, Sycamore, Illinois, probably made the
Model 800 lamp in the 1930's.
This lamp has a glass globe which is barely visible in this image;
only the frame of the parchment shade is present.
Turner products often have the unique two control valves and characteristic pump seen here.
This lamp is in Craig Seabrook's collection.

Unito lamps were sold and possibly manufactured by United Factories Co., Cleveland, Ohio.
The lamp on the left and adjacent is an early unknown model.
The third lamp is a Model 400 or 401,
and is in Craig Seabrook's collection.
The lamp on the right, Model 415, has a mahogany painted fount
and is in Neil McRae's collection.

Neil McRae was able to restore this kerosene fueled lamp
to running condition,
but does not know the manufacturer.
It was made in the United States probably between 1915-1925.
If you can identify the manufacturer and/or model
please contact Neil.

While the burner assembly of this lamp is Coleman,
the lamp base and shade are mysteries -
Who made them?
If you can identify them, please contact Jerry Engbring.

White Manufacturing Co., Chicago, Illinois,
made this No. 2 American Arc lamp circa 1900-1903
when the company was purchased by Turner Brass Works.
This lamp, in Keith Letsche's collection,
includes the original glass globe, inner mica globe,
and adjustable rod to hold the mantle.

Windhorst & Co., St. Louis, Missouri, manufactured this donut lamp
that was a ceiling light in a railroad repair shop in Pennsylvania.
Henry Plews got a nice bright light from the lamp after he soldered a couple of parts
and aligned the generator tip with the center of the air intake tube.
The company name appears on the face of the pressure gauge.

An early ML216 Arcolite made by the Yale Light Co., Chicago, Illinois.
This two mantled lamp, in Neil McRae's collection,
with an old shade which is not original to the lamp.
The lamp was designed to produce 300 cp using white gas;
ML in the model number refers to match lighting,
meaning that the generator requires preheating.

Yale probably made this bracket or torch lighting wall lamp.
Lamp models with a similar flattened fount
appear in a Yale catalog from 1912
and the filler cap is a distinctive size
that we have only found on another lamp
that we believe was also made by Yale.
This lamp is in Fil Graff's collection.
