REVO C13721/S

Strictly speaking, this isn't the REVO C13721/S as that lantern had only one side-entry opening. This is an ultra-rare REVO modification, the lantern sporting two spigot entry holes, and fitted to a modified REVO Vanguard harp bracket.

These post-top lanterns could be found in the town of Haslemere, with a large installation still extant lighting the Hindhead Road (A287). They were installed through the town, replacing a gas installation, and instantly hated by the local population.

This lantern came from that installation and was rescued by P.. The bowl is cracked and broken in some places, but not to a great extent. Interestingly the lantern has a "seagull" reflector, whilst most other examples of this type of lantern have flat, secondary, over reflectors.

More information about the bracket can be found here.
