Carbide Cap Lamps/Belcro Bottom

Carbide Cap Lamps

Belcro Bottom.JPG - BELCRO NO. 1 BOTTOM - Nickel plated BELCRO NO. 1 cap lamp, 3 ½ in. tall, 2 ¼ in. base dia, 3 in. dia reflector with a round coined-edge reflector nut (I've seen other Belcro lamps with a hex nut on the reflector so I'm not sure if this is original or a mod), marked in raised letters on top BELCRO NO. 1, with hook and cap braces; ex-Henry Pohs’ collection (lamp photo in Pohs’ book pg 517) COLLECTION NOTE - WHILE THE FOCUS OF MY LAMP COLLECTION IS ON US MADE LAMPS, I OCCASIONALLY MAKE AN EXCEPTION. THE BRITISH MADE BELCRO IS JUST SUCH AN EXCEPTION, PRIMARILY BECAUSE OF ITS PROVENANCE FROM THE HENRY POHS COLLECTION. THE VIEWER WILL FIND OTHER EXCEPTIONS SUCH AS THE R.A. AUSTRALIAN OIL WICK, AUSTRALIAN SPIDER CANDLESTICK, AND A COUPLE OTHERS. ENJOY THE SITE.
