Shows: Buena Park '07

Here are more photos from the 2007 railroadiana show held in Buena Park, California in January of 2007, courtesy of Rob Hoffer. Click on the thumbnails for larger images. Some of these are very big files so download time may be **slow** for a modem connection.

Above left to right. A Handlan desk lamp with no obvious railroad marking and a caboose lamp marked for the Canadian National Railroad; a Southern Pacific electric clock; a condiment set marked for the Santa Fe Railway; a lamp marked for the Pullman Company; an odd, small lamp about the size of a short lantern globe (maybe a promotional item).
Above left to right. A switch stand and lamp; an Adams & Westlake lantern in the "Reliable" style marked for the Santa Fe Railway with a clear cast "logo" globe; a lantern made by Adams & Westlake and marked for the Colorado & Southern with a clear cast globe; a lantern made by Adams & Westlake and marked for the Pacific Electric Railway with a clear cast globe; a short-globe lantern made by Handlan and marked for the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway with a red cast globe.
Above left to right. Another style of short-globe lantern made by Handlan and marked for the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railway with a clear cast globe; a tall globe lantern made by Handlan and marked for the Southern Pacific with a red cast globe; an Adams & Westlake "Reliable" lantern marked for the Portland Railway, Light & Power Co. with a red-etched globe; a Dietz "Vesta" lantern marked for the Chicago Great Western Railway with a clear etched globe; two cast brass locks.
Above left to right. A lineup of cast brass locks marked for various Western railroads, all part of an impressive display.
Above left to right. More cast brass locks from this display.
Far left and immediate left. Two views of what was possibly the star of the show or at least one of the stars: a blue-cast, "Corning style" tall globe marked for the Union Pacific Railroad. These are rare and certainly quite striking in appearance, although we should proabably avoid the word "striking" around such expensive glass.
