I remember some genius told me one time that cattle can't jump.

Bet I can't do that.

This one, I may have done good on, but IDK. I think the screws may help date it. I got it at a garage sale many years ago. I don't remember how much I paid for it. For some reason $20-25 is in my head.

I've got to show that one to my hubby! It would determine which employee has the most finesse with the fork lift, I believe.

Morning Gold boy.

This we bought at an auction. We knew the elderly couple. They dealt a lot in antiques. They had moved in with their son due to medical issues. Their house kept getting robbed. So the family finally got together and all the stuff was taken to the fairgrounds for the auction. Man they had a lot of stuff! Lucky for them, the thieves didn't know much about antiques. They were just stealing stuff to make quick cash for drugs, I suspect. Anyway, we both liked this and got it for $350.00. We are totally clueless if it was a good deal or not and it doesn't matter. We were more into helping them out. We have had it for 5 years and I don't know if we should leave it as is, or have it restored? Or maybe professionally cleaned up?

I think you did really well. I've got an old L&N RR lantern blue globe worth a couple hundred. Those you have look great. Bet yours are worth 2 to 3 hundred a piece.

Folks,

Here's a morning tune for you.

That's a good one, Bill. I didn't know it was scripture until about 10-15 years ago.

It's only one. I took several angles of it.

 

[WannaDig3687]

I have more lanterns, but I thought this one was the real deal and not a reproduction.

 

[Rookster]

That's a good one, Bill. I didn't know it was scripture until about 10-15 years ago.

I believe it came from Ecclesiastes 3 one-eight.

I was just looking. It appears they have a lot of earthquakes. I guess this one made the news because it was bigger than usual
