Pair of vintage metal signal lanterns, marked "JWG" on top. Each lantern is constructed of heavy red-painted metal with curved hanging hooks and fitted with round glass lenses framed in white. Hinged front panels open to reveal the interior, originally designed to hold lighting elements. These lanterns were likely used for railway, industrial, or safety signaling purposes. Surface wear, scratches, burning marks, and paint loss consistent with age and use, adding to their authentic patina. These items are in good pre-owned, previously displayed condition with minor wear, and surface scratches. Please reference all photos for full details.
Lantern: 14 1/2" tall x 5 3/4". Weight: 6.0 lbs
