    Need some help identifying these headlights, I can't find any maufacturer markings on them. Not even sure if they are car or carriage. Don't remember where I got them, but if I can get the HAMB's help to tell me what they are, I can sell them to fund some needed parts. Thanks.

    They look like carriage lamps, originals used candles. Have they been electrified, if so was it done neatly? How do they attach? Bob

    These are a mystery to me, looks like kerosene or lamp fuel. They could be porch lamps.
     
  5. I had house lamps like that once. On the porch and in the hall on the walls it had like a long "ring" holder you slid the handle into that way you could move them to where you needed.

    IIRC, mine had clear glass on 3 sides, so I guess it could have been used on an old carriage being that yours only point in one direction.
