The Port lantern's brass tag reads: Nathaniel Tufts, Maker, Boston. Tufts' firm used a number of names but "Nathaniel Tufts, Maker, Boston, Mass" started in 1878. This lantern is most likely late 1800s to early 1900.
The lens has been re-made many years ago when it was cut and then another part of a lens was joined into one deep ruby lens. There are a few tiny lens "chews:. New wiring was just added and the old lantern looks great when lighted. 17 inches high and 7 1/2 inches in diameter.
Photos show 2 lanterns, the blue lens, starboard lantern was sold. This is only for the port lantern.
