Railway Lamp

[Kevin Wilson-Smith]

Recently acquired a rather nice lamp - intact and with all the lenses in one piece, as well as the ceramic burner. Made in UK.

There is rust on the bottom and the edges of most surfaces, so I will have to clean it up etc and maybe repaint it. What colour were the originals - gloss or semi matt or matt black?

That looks like the one I used on the photo shoot. Give it back!1 Colour was as is, use a satin black spray paint that you can buy, it gives a great finish.

THanks Nathan!

I've got a similar one, also complete and in very good condition, except that the handle on the side is squashed. I never seem to get round to unsquashing it...
