Rare Vintage Feuerhand 276/70 Baby Special Hurricane Lantern – West Germany Oil Lantern with Large Tank
Unique vintage Feuerhand 276/70 Baby Special hurricane lantern from West Germany. A particularly unusual version because it was produced without the traditional Sturmkappe (storm cap), a feature normally found on the 276/STK 70 models.
This is the famous Feuerhand Baby 276/70 model, most commonly seen as a yellow road safety lantern, but this example is a standard hurricane lantern version instead. Its exceptionally large fuel tank allows for an extremely long burn time — the “70” designation refers to approximately 70 hours of operation.
The lantern includes its original marked clear glass globe and still retains the wick used to help draw fuel into the burner.
A fantastic addition to any vintage lantern or industrial collection, while also being fully functional for atmospheric lighting in the home, garden, camping trips, or holiday use.
