    1933 Feuerhand Super Baby No. 175 Lantern

    Rainy day in Chicago last Sunday so wife and I decided to go garage sale hunting. Some venues were closed due to the persistent rain, but we managed to visit a few houses. Wife found this nicely preserved German Super Baby No. 175 lantern, model of 1933. It seems repainted a long time ago, but it's completely functional and the glass bulb is intact . Great find for $3.

    Nicw find for $3. The W.Germany mark on it dates it to between 1948 and 1990. Here is one on ETSY-

    It could be post WW-II, but the trademark "Super Baby" was granted to the company in 1933.

    You are correct, it is definitely post WWII though. There was no W. Germany before that. It's still a good find, especially for $3.
