    Here is a great dressel station lamp I found and fixed up. It was made in the late 1880's to 1890's, it is all here and even the glass is old. It did not have rust, that was good. The copper pieces that hold the glass is there, and brass reflector with nickel plated finish is original to lamp, the lamp is about 23 inches tall, 10 inches wides and about 12 inches in front. This lamp has what they call a cookie cutter chiThis lamp would have been found on train depos, it is super super hard to find these lamps
