Oilwick Lamps/Rollins Patent - Almost 40 Years of Production

Oilwick Lamps

Rollins Patent - Almost 40 Years of Production.JPG - THE ROLLINS PATENT - 36 YEARS OF CONTINUOUS PRODUCTION - Arguably, the Rollins patent involved more manufacturing entities for a longer period of time than any other oil wick patent. At least 8 different manufacturers made the Rollins patent lamp from 1882 to 1918. Although I've included each of the lamps elsewhere in my pictures, I thought it would be of interest to see these lamps all together with their individual markings (shown in order of production sequence).
