great great stuff



You are looking at a RARE Vintage Handlan Number 57 Traffic Guard Lantern. This Rare Traffic Guard lantern has a red globe and red stand. . Below is information on this RARE, COLLECTABLE lantern:


As a supplement to the popular Model 2000, at some point during 1946-1948 the #57 was first offered and probably in direct competition and response to the Dietz Model 40 since this lantern has been found finished in various colors with a red or amber globe marked "HANDLAN No 57" or "HANDLAN" being the same size as the Model 40's. A unique selling point was that the 57's uprights were wire and didn't obstruct the signal as might the Model 40's stamped uprights. On the other hand these wires provide little real support and protection for the globe and have been known to easily fail. (Some type 1s even had a centered "finger" bail similar to the Embury/Dietz types 1 and 2.) 
    $75
