STORM LANTERNS We had been selling FEUERHAND lanterns, from Germany, for years now, and thought them to be pretty damned good, commensurate with our rather strict Germanic quality standards. Aah, but ultimately we were disappointed... Good, em- phatically yes, but we kept studying the subject, and found better. Good old American manufacturer, DIETZ. The Dietzes started making lamps in 1850 in NYC. The original fac- tory building still stands today, and has been made into a restaurant. But R.E. Dietz Co., has been making the original lamps in China since 1956! And if it matters, they are bet- ter now than ever! We’ve been testing for over a year and are impressed. The most signifi- cant and visible reason being that the Dietz burns longer and is two candlepower brighter than the Feuerhand. And we’ve experienced no leakage, ever.
DIETZ NO. 30 LITTLE WIZARD
