    what is it with these oil lamps :-/

    heres my digs from today, another oil lamp pat date 1866. (got to be a dozen in the past month) 5 wheats and 5 clad. wheats are in good shape: 1910, 1917d (2), 1920 and 1934 (engraved KH). most of a pocket watch, and 3 decorative handles (all within a couple of feet) was a nice day for digging after that rain, hope everyone makes time to get out, HH, Griff
