Jefferson Glass Co. Red Glass Lens 908 1/2 . Railroad Lantern 3.5 diameter x 3/4” high. Great vintage condition! 908 1/2 Designation: While "908" or "908 1/2" is typically a pattern number used by glass companies to identify specific bulb shapes or styles, detailed records of a specific "908 1/2" model railroad lantern often fall into the domain of specialized railroadiana collectors rather than general glass history. However, the 1920s-1930s was the peak era for these types of short-globe lanterns, such as those made by Adams & Westlake.
