Is there any value in a vintage hand light? I found a Carpenter-Light 6-volt (mounts on top of a dry cell) hand light. Made of aluminum with a "Carpenter" bulb inside. It still works. Should I sell it on eBay?
Thank you. Eddie

I just recovered my lantern, including original Carperter bulbs and 1697 vintage Bell System batteries. Mine is in much better condition (paint & rubber) compared to the photo above. Anybody have a clue as to how the base was used, either for tilt or it seems it could have been slid and secured over a board (crossarm)?
