Good point about price . . . For a beautiful, functional, and nautical-history-authentic inexpensive oil-lamp, you might check out the brass hurricane lamps available from Dietz. http://www.y2klanterns.com/html/dietz-hurricane.html I own one, but just use it decoratively. I'll probably employ it on my boat eventually. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Rusty Knorr" <mazemusic@yahoo.com> To: "For and about Montgomery Sailboats" <montgomery_boats@mailman.xmission.com> Sent: Monday, February 02, 2004 3:14 PM Subject: Anker light . . . Yes, and once they woke me up and picked me up off the floor I realized that at $160.00, maybe I don't need an anchor light at all... Still hoping I can find one in a junk store or someone not using one and willing to part with it.

Thanks, Connie. A friend of mine actually has one and it says "Anker Light" on it, I assume it is the brand name and thought it was probably of German origin. It is a Kerosene lamp and has a beautiful thick glass lens which was what drew me to it. I don't know of that catalogue, how can I get a copy? Thank you, Rusty
