Globe appears to be in good shape, original all red, and no dents of bends in the metal. The metal is rusty, all working parts seem to work; the globe raises to light, the wick raises, but the Kerosene cap needs some WD-40, as it is stuck on. I found this and some of it's "buddies" in a barn. This one is reasonably cleaned up except for the rust, which makes it look authentic !! This will be great decor for anyone, and hopefully you will be able to get it up and working again. I see no other reason
