Antique 1930'a Aladdin Model 12 Oil Lamp with Glass Chimney

Excellent condition Aladdin model 12 Oil lamp complete with original glass chimney. The Aladdin model 12 lamp was an entirely new model from the ground up and was the last Aladdin center draft lamp design. As you will see it was a very versatile lamp that came in many versions. The model 12 introduced the Lox-On mantle still used today as well as the Lox-On chimney. The model 12 lamp was the first to have optional paper shades as well as glass shades.

The model 12 brought decorated glass shades into common usage. The model 12 burner stayed in production until the early 1950s to repair model 7 through 12 lamps and for sale overseas. When the Aladdin headquarters were moved to Nashville, Tenn.

In 1949 the wick adjuster knob was changed to read Nashville instead of Chicago. Nashville model 12 burners never came on model 12 lamps when they were new.

The 12 burner is on the 1953 parts list but not on the 1954 list.
