Here's a page with information about the Dietz Lamps boxes they are standing next to: www.lanternnet.com/faqs.htm quoting: "The Dietz Blizzard was first introduced in 1898 as the No.2 Cold Blast , and is one of only three lanterns that has remained in continuous production for over 100 years. ... Millions of Blizzards have been produced since 1898, making it one of the most common lanterns in the world." W.T. Kirkman
