I've had an appreciation for antiques since I was young thanks to my parents. My main passions are Civil War memorabilia and my ever growing oil lamp collection, but if it's old and catches my eye I'm into it. (Read more)

  1. Thanks BB
  2. Well the woman I purchased it from stated that she found it in her grandparents home. She also said her family we're a bunch of blondes so she was unsure if this was a relative lol, anyway it's a beau...
  3. No won't be smoking any, just another addition to the collection!
  4. Ya it looks to be a hand painted piece on porcelain
  5. Ya the name is tough but i agree with you that it's Makerm, as for the first name no idea lol, the last line it looks like pat'd / 84 to me
  6. I'll try my best
  7. No, it's not quite my style to wear lol, due to its age and fragile nature I wouldn't even let someone try it on
  8. Beautiful piece, great find
  9. I see alot of lamps with the cast iron base, most likely from the 1880s. The font though is really great, never seen a pattern like it
  10. Welcome, good luck with the piece
  11. Thank you!
  12. Unfortunately not that I have seen, most likely plated
  13. Thanks for the love BB2
  14. Thanks for the love BB2
  15. Thanks for the love BB2
  16. Fantastic lamps! Beautiful pieces!
  17. Purchased this piece which seems to be the same size print at auction a few months ago. I feel your print seems to be in little better condition than mine. If planning to sell you should expect betwee...
  18. Thanks for the love!
  19. And thanks for the love!
  20. Oil lamps are really great, they not only look nice but ya can save on your electric bill! I have a rather extensive collection and most are just display pieces, but I do randomly burn different ones ...
  21. Well, the only other example of the lamp on the left that I've seen through my searching called this an umbrella font, makes sense lol, circa 1890s
  22. He seems thrilled lol
  23. Ya, the left one is pretty cool, I'm digging the font shape! Thanks again for your input Bob
  24. Ya true, thanks for the info!
  25. Did they make different models throughout the years? Mine has patent dates of 85 and 88 on it, just curious
  26. That's how they had it displayed when I purchased it, I'll fix it lol, thanks
  27. Oops, awe I was told 1880s , bummer, but still cool
  28. Beautiful piece!
  29. Very cool! Thanks Dave
  30. Spirit, it says copyrighted 1884 by W J Nelson
  31. Indeed they would Keeper!
  32. Thanks for the love spirit!
  33. Sorry the pic isn't the greatest but it's clear
  34. And I just want to say thanks, I only found this site because I was looking for info on an oil lamp font and you helped me out Bob! Your the man and I appreciate everyone on this website!
  35. That is so crazy! Glad I could trigger those memories with this, I only have a few old bottles and this is by far my favorite!
  36. I'll get back to ya asap, not home at the moment
  37. I've read that too Scott unfortunately, but I had to take a shot on them for what I paid, I contacted the Horse Soldier in Gettysburg and sent them pics so I'm keeping my fingers crossed for good news!
  38. Fantastic piece, my father owns a Babe Ruth signed ball but that doesn't come close to this!
  39. Hmmm, I never thought of doing that, good idea to find out if a hidden gem is underneath. Thanks for the info
  40. It's a victorian banquet lamp in very nice condition, either late 19th or early 20th century
  41. And the flat sided burner by Bridgeport looks fantastic on the Adams lamp!
  42. Cake stand is very cool looking btw!
  43. Yes, it has about half of the writing still intact on the bottom of the flowers so it's definitely without a doubt the ones that came with it, and as for the larger lamp I'm haven't taken it apart if ...
  44. Wow, that's great! Thank you so much! I actually ordered Thuro's vol 1 a few days ago, I currently only own vol 2 , Thanks again, Ed
