Description
Adlake Kero Lantern, circa 1913. The brim of the lantern is stamped with The Adams & Westlake Co. makers mark and the initials I.C.R.R most likely standing for the Illinois Central Railroad. The globe of this lantern is blue meaning that it would be hung on equipment to signal that it should not be moved from the area or task it was currently being used for.
