Finds: Brass Lanterns

Found this pair of brass lanterns on my way to work yesterday - I used the old "shoelace tie" trick to carry them with me on my bike.

It absolutely kills me how many of these I have in my collection - close to 20 now, I think. Invariably they are complete, functional, and merely tarnished. Has no one ever heard of Brasso?!

I have an identical lantern to the one pictured. We did use Brasso and it's now hanging on our front porch.

My faith is restored! ;-)
