I posted this yesterday, but I believe it was shot into a black hole or 
something and never made it to the list.  If, however, you got this 
message before, I apologize for the duplication:

This is not a blacksmithing question, but I thought this august group 
could point me toward a resource.  Does anyone know of a book or diagram 
which gives the correct terminology for the various parts of the old 
kerosene lanterns?  I know the globe, wick, and bale (handle), but what 
are the names of the other components?  I appreciate any assitance 
or info anyone can provide.

I see lots of kerosene lanterns around.  Try any good hardware store, discount
store, drug store, novelty store, etc.  If you still can't find one, I'll be
glad to arrange for you to get one from one of my suppliers.
