First good find

Hey y'all, I went to a former school site yesterday, and found this kerosene lamp mechanism.
It's a nice change from the usual pull tabs lol.

Clean up the little adjustment wheel. Usually you can find a patent date on that wheel. It's kinda cool to see a date that starts with an "18".

Best of luck to you sir!

Cool find!! Try cleaning that thing up a little and see if you can get a patent date off it.
