Average Customer Ratings:

Oil lamps are showcased in hundreds of black and white and color photographs throughout these pages, with greater emphasis on diversity, trimmings, and the probable placement in the home. Lighting fixtures such as hall, hanging, or bracket lamps reveal that Victorian homeowners had an astounding selection from which to choose. The many catalog illustrations and advertisements serve to date lamps and perhaps identify their manufacturer. This third volume is both a visual feast and a wealth of information for readers and collectors. 2003 values. AUTHORBIO: Catherine Thuro is a researcher, lecturer, writer, and museum consultant in the field of early lighting.

Summary: Thuro's Victorian Lighting
Comment: This is the third book by Catherine Thuro on the subject of kerosene oil lighting and lamps. This book is as informative and useful as were her other two books. As an avid collector of whale oil and Kerosene oil antique lamps and lighting, I feel her books are one of the best reference sources available. I highly recommend this book to anyone who embraces the passion of collecting antique lighting!
