VINTAGE LANTERN RESTORATION - Dietz No. 40 Traffic Gard Lantern
Awesome Vintage Tool Restoration! This Dietz No.40 Traffic Gard Lantern is a dead flame type lantern used by highway contractors, utilities and the like to warn drivers of road hazards at night. This one was very rusty on the posts and inside the chimney cap.
It is the only lantern to feature a Fresnel type lens globe (like a lighthouse would use).
This one was probably produced in the mid 1950s. It features the contracted name on the lanterns as "B.U.G. CO."
I got it from a guy on Craigslist. Some purists will balk at my restoration preferring to leave lanterns with their original paint and patina. I wanted to attempt to bring this one back to like new condition!
