DIETZ Junior 1925 with 'stepped' Dietz globe - SANSKRIT - Export to INDIA

DIETZ JUNIOR - EXPORT TO INDIA

 

After stripping off the black paint and then yellow paint, underneath was a true gem.  In excellent condition, it is a beautiful example of the Dietz Junior with Sanskrit embossed on the tank.  This translates "Real Dietz-Made in America".

 

Both globes are original with the most special one being the 'stepped' globe.  This globe is embossed 'Patd Jan. 2-23 (1923).  The lantern is dated on the tube 9-13-1925.

 

CIRCA:  1925

    Hello Nathalie,

    The Frowo Indian 340 takes the same size globe as the Dietz Blizzard. That globe you can find on Ebay. You need to hunt for that same size globe. I do not have an extra one to sell you.
