revo c14410/t: as aquired

Obtained from Claire, this fantasic old swan neck comes complete with large REVO control box which would've held all the gear for the mercury lamp. Not the austere finial and no-frills design - this was clearly from the 1950s and 1960s.

The REVO "Bell Top" has unfortunately lost its bowl and refractor ring. I may take the glassware from my other example and create a complete lantern.

Fortunately Darren has a spare, mint prismatic glass bowl for mercury lamps so I was able to build a complete lantern.
