Large rear Powell & Hanmer (P&H) original Tail carbide acetylene lamp for flat tank vintage veteran motorcycles

This rear light is one of a number from a collection. They are all now going up for sale as I have no need for them.

This P & H rear lamp would be great on a patina motorcycle. It is larger than other P& H rear tail lights that I have. It also has the original “bulls eye” rear lens. Please take a good look at the pictures as they say so much more than words when it comes to condition. It has a few small dings and the original nickel plate is worn and lightly pitted. However, the clasp and hinge both work. The light is decent inside and there is a wick holder. It looks like someone has fitted a reflector and I don’t believe the mount is original. The original red lens has a crack in it. This is not obvious from outside but is more apparent from the inside.

While I have described this as a rear / tail light for a vintage / veteran / antique motorcycle, it could easily be used as a sidecar carbide acetylene lamp. Although some sidecar lamps have a forward=facing clear lens. This light has the usual rear-light side clear lens.

These little lamps are hard to find now.

This rear lamp measures around 3-3/4″ in height including the chimney and gas input.

Please see my selection of acetylene / carbide lamps. I have burners, front lamps and more rear ones. The lamps include Lucas #344 nickel plated carbide acetylene rear tail lamps. There are also a variety of Miller and P& H lights, together with more unusual Westwood “bullet shaped” lamps and one made by Rival. I also have some Miller Rearlite nickel plated, port and starboard, acetylene lamps. Please look through the current selection of lamps that are available here
