  Foxall Marking.JPG - FOXALL - Tin oil wick lamp, new marking on font ???MERS across top with WILKES BARRE PA in center and FOXALL (I'm pretty confident) across bottom, 2 1/2 in. tall to top of lid, 4 1/8 in. long spout, and 1 1/2 in. base dia., unusual wire boot kick that extends around onto bottom, paper UNION LABEL ASSOCIATION of AMALGAMATED SHEET METAL WORKERS INTERNATIONAL ORGANIZED MAY 1 1896 label attached to bottom (Identification of this marking is still a work in progress. If anyone has any information on the marking, I'd appreciate any help I can get. The FOXALL name (OXALL is clearly marked) is based on census records in the 1880 to 1920 time frame for Wilkes-Barre and Luzerne County, Pennsylvania that show the family, especially William Foxall, in business in Wilkes-Barre managing a jewelry factory. The top name marking is still elusive but research continues.)
