Here's a very rare old Akron Lamp Company DIAMOND Brand Gas Pressure TABLE LAMP. My research shows it dates to about 1915. Lamp and shade measure about 20". Nickel plated brass fount in nice condition with no dents or corrosion. Black bakelite handle. It uses 2 mantles and I believe it will burn either gasoline or kerosene, if you preheat the generator loop. White milk glass shade is very nice and was with the lamp when I bought at a farm sale several years ago. It may or may not be original to the lamp but it fits perfectly and appears matched. Original AS FOUND condition and has not been tested. It appears complete and no reason it wouldn't fire up once cleaned. You don't see many of these old lamps.. Guaranteed to please the new owner or I'll buy it back. FREE SHIPPING IN THE USA. Check my Feedback
