HAVE HAD THIS “HANGING AROUND” FOR SOME TIME AND IT’S TIME TO MOVE IT TO A NEW HOME……………………………………………………………DIETZ MONARCH KEROSENE LANTERN…………………………………………NOT BEING AND EXPERT ON THESE, I CAN’T SAY FOR SURE WHAT THE ORIGINAL COLOR OF THIS WAS;  IS SEE YELLOW UNDERNEATH THE BLACK SURFACE COAT.  LANTERN STANDS APPROX. 13 1/2″ TALL AND IS 6 1/2″ ACROSS THE BASE. DON’T SEE ANYTHING I WOULD CALL “HARD RUST” ON THIS.  LOOKING INSIDE THE FUEL TANK I NOTE LIGHT SURFACE RUST WHICH SURELY SHOULD BE EXPECTED FOR A LAMP THIS OLD THAT HAS NOT BEEIN IN USE.  GLOBE IS IN GREAT CONDITION WITH NO CRACKS.  THE WICK REGULATOR MOVES UP AND DOWN AS IT SHOULD.  DON’T SEE ANY DENTS IN THE LANTERN.   THE FILLER CAP HAS THE ONE EDGE CHIPPED OFF BUT STILL SEALS THE TANK PROPERLY.  WE HAVE NOT PUT ANY FLUIDS IN THE TANK TO CHECK FOR LEAKS BUT NOTHING LOOKS LIKE A LEAK.  THIS IS BEING SOLD AS IS WITH NO RETURNS.  PLEASE NOTE : OUR PRICES ARE FIRM. THEY ARE THE LOWEST WE CAN SELL IT FOR. WE DO NOT ACCEPT OFFERS.IF YOU OFFER..YOU WILL BE BLOCKED
